Etiquette - November 2006

Why is it always that when you get home from a realllllllly long hard day at work and go to fix something to eat your roommate/brother has already eaten it and there is nothing else to eat?

This is a general question and was wondering if this sort of behaviour changes in time. I also would like to know, why the team leaders act this way? Will he change?

Why they don't romance us anymore. One of my answerers stated that I haven't made clear to a guy where I stand. Not true. How much clearer can you be than with the words you actually speak? The type of clothes you wear? The kind of activities you are willing to participate(or not) in? How much clearer can a person be? Sometimes repeating over and over that I am not interested in a shallow relationship and still getting dissed with rude contemptuous responses or outright being ignored and having to literally escape from the date? Rude!

Occasionally my husband will leave to go to his computer while I am still eating my dinner. I have told him a few times that this bothers me, but again he did it tonight. When I told him this time that it bothered me when he did that, he was upset that I had an issue with that since he brought the meal home (take-out). I told him that it doesn't matter which person provides the meal, but that it was rude to leave the other person to finish eating their meal alone. He doesn't think it is rude. I asked him, "If we weren't married and you took someone out on a date, would you leave her before she finished her meal?" He said "No, but that is a DATE." So, I said, "But I am your WIFE."

Is it rude to leave when the other person hasn't yet finished their meal? If not, why do I find this offensive? I can't even explain to him why this bothers me other than to say it just feels disrespectful.

Thank You :-)

They are soOoOoOo noisy and they have parties all time with loud music--sometimes until 6am!?!?!? Their livingroom wall is our bedroom wall, and they like to play their stereo with alot of loud drum...Even though am 18 and my husband is 26, NO WAY we will have loud party like this! What should we do in this situation? (We are from Middle East, and so people acting like this is not common)

When someone calls your house and has the wrong number, especially when they are drunk and it is the middle of the night, have you ever told them something like (if they asked for "Mary"), "No, man, Mary died, didn't you hear?" Or "Sorry, dude, Joe's in jail. Do you think he could borrow some bail money from you?"

Just to mess with their head for waking you up at 3 o'clock in the freakin' morning.

Bascially in a nutshell we did a group project and we all had to do our part. At the end, we had to grade each other, and we were not supposed to see what the others gave us. I turned in my grade sheet, and looked down to see that she gave me a poor rating, and put down that she did not want to work with me again. I felt that I did a lot for the group, I bought the food which cost about 20 bucks, and did my part, maybe not the way she wanted it. I want to know it you think it's a good idea to talk to the professor even though we were not supposed to look at the sheet. I did gave everyone a perfect score by the way.

When I went and talked to him about my issues he said literally the following. It was in the context of illegal aliens and outsourcing . They (Il. aliens) come through the window not through the door and steal , rob ,kill and finely rape our women . I was shocked. I do not know why he reacted like that . What I gonna do . The problem is that this gay is teaching diversity management .

I have even invited her down to hear what it sounds like. She has a 5 yr old daughter and they have hard wood floors. My lease does have a clause about residents maintaining their apartment as not to disturb the peaceful enjoyment of others, which to me should include maintaining the noise of your children. I have called the landlord previously and was told if it's just regular footsteps, etc., there's nothing they can do. Well.........regular footsteps with high heels on a 5 yr old, or an adult, sounds like an AK47 going off down here. A 5 yr old riding a big wheel, jumping off furniture, running from room to room is NOT "regular" footsteps. I am so frustrated that I plan to get up at 3 am and beat on my ceiling or drag various objects across it as to disturb her as bad as I get it, with any luck. I know it won't fix it, but I think I'll feel better. I work nights and this is similar to 3 in the morning for me. And yes, she and the landlord are aware of my work schedule.

it may happen to anyone... You're invited by some relatives (let's say far one's )... My parents and I were sitting at the table in a fancy restaurant. Perhaps I know, how to behave in public because I had the chance to have a good education (Etiquette) and thank my parents for that..
So let's have look on the other side of our table : our relatives ; have seem a little bit out of track with the wine and they're starting to act so badly ... speaking very lound; telling unappropriate jokes very lound... I was not having fun, because it was soo embarrassing to become the center of attention and get bad looks from strangers sitting at the next table. I wonder how can you make relatives understand that the other clients were'nt unable to ear themselves talking while they were joking soo lound!! should we have just pay our note and leave them there? or just sit there and suffer the humiliation???

Recently I lost my job and my apartment at the same time. I'm living with friends while searching for a new job. They know I don't have money to help out with the rent or groceries, but they've graciously allowed me to stay.

I do the dishes and the laundry as well as helping out with the house cleaning, but they're such naturally clean people that this isn't really much of an effort. Is there something else I should be doing to show them I appreciate what they're doing for me? I can't take them out to dinner or buy them gifts, so what else can I do to earn my keep?

This year my brother and his wife wanted to have Thanksgiving dinner at their new home for the first time . His new wife suggested this and threw in that my Mom wouldn't have to do all the cooking like she tends to do. I am the only sibling and I offered to cook a good portion of it to help out. The issue is that both Mom and Dad have to work on Thanksgiving and could not get it off, but they don't have to go in until 1:00pm. My sister-in-law is now saying that we are eating at 2pm and whoever can make it fine and whoever doesn't make it, fine. My husband and I (I am the sister of her husband) think that is really rude and that we should eat earlier so our parents can enjoy the meal before they have to leave for work. Last year I remember that my mother made everyone wait over an hour after the food was done so we could wait for my new sister-in-law to get off work and come eat with us. To top that off she asked my mom to bake 2 pies and a bundt cake.
