I'm a pretty down to earth kid. I'm 16 years old. Today, we were playin football in a parking lot and just cuz i'm short, i pissed off some kid whose my age.

i left and sat down and watched. However, this kid is a waterboy and probably gets talked **** about 24/7, and he CHARGED at me,
and the looked on his face seemed as if he was ready to rip the skin off my face,

me, im not like that at all, ive never been in a fight, my LIFE flashed in front of me and i ran ran for my life...

next time, i want to atleast defend my self.

Can someone tell me some good fighting techniques thanks

For example, I'm working with a customer who wants help with her computer. She is asking me an indepth question, I'm trying to gather information so I can help her and her phone rings, "Oh wait a minute." It's like duh! Talk about shampoo on your own time! Then she gets pissed because I go off and do something else.

BTW, this happens all the time. I am a computer tech in an electronics store.

He insists that I bag my trash alphabetically. Some nonsense about OCD.

he got all females numbers on it. Should i be worried or is it possible they're just all his friends? Should i confront him about it?

I work in retail and I obviously am a customer at times too. And I know that some people seam to get terribly upset over nonsense, and some use a simple error to gain the upper hand and take advantage of the mistake...And then there are the ******* who really act like jerks to make a point.

Any thoughts? Am I right on this?

Does anyone else want to die in their mid 40s to early 50s. Life after that just seems so boring and pointless. Who the hell wants to live in a nursing home or lay in a bed all day watching TV. You are completely reliant on everyone else to survive. Who wants to live like that?????

My husband and I have new neighbors across the street... they haven't officially moved in yet, but, will do so within the next week. Today we introduced ourselves, but, I would like for them to feel welcomed. No one gave my husband and I any type of welcome (i.e. gift basket, etc), but, I wanted to be a different neighbor than the neighbors were to me. The new neighbors are like my husband and I, no kids and married for five years. I would love suggestions on something small I could do from my husband and I to give to the neighbors. I guess I'm asking what's proper etiquette for welcoming people into the community. Thanks for your suggestions!!!!

Why do so many people have such a difficult time tipping others who do them a service? example: waitresses, bellmen, taxi drivers, food delivery people, beautitions,the man or woman who helps load groceries in your car..ect. Are people stingy, or do you think they are ignorant to the fact you are supposed to tip? Do people realize these workers earn most of their wages from these tips??

Does society ask you to be reserved while dealing with strangers, members of opposite sex etc.. or is it a personal choice?

I've been with a guy for three years. I have a feeling that he might propose soon but the problem is that I absolutely hate his family. I know hate is a strong word but I can't even begin to explain these terrible people. (Both sides of the family maternal and paternal) Is this a reason to totally break up with the guy or what? How do you tell someone that you truly hate their family? That is pretty harsh.

I'm a waitress, at work this large girl (20's) asks me when I am due (as in pregnancy), I am a size 7 in juniors so I 'm thin. I tell her that I am not and add that unless she knows the person or it is obvious that the person she is asking is in fact pregnant it's best not to ask, then I walked away. She then tells me that I should not get so offended, I told her that I was very offended. To me that implies she thinks I have a belly, which is rude to point out if the person isn't pregnant. She thens calls back later to my work to complain about me to a manager, she hung up before the manager (my boyfirend) could answer. The man next to the lady told me after she left he thought I handled it well and was polite to her. Would you have acted the same, or what would you have done? I was absolutely livid, what nerve!

I am this girl's boss. However, when I work with her, her non-stop chatter about absouletly nothing is really getting on my nerves. I work in an enviornment where children are involved, and her constant talking is keeping her from caring for the children properly. She is terribly unfocused, and has been giving the children the wrong things to eat, etc. I have already talked to her about this, and she is okay for a few days, yet begins again with the chattering. I don't know what do to, besides get a pair of earplugs. This wouldn't be allowed in our setting. Can anyone help, Please? Thank You!
