what are the rules about saying hello to people who you work / engage withduring the day.
is it just me or is passing certain people you work with quite awkward - are you meant to say hello 10 times every day, who should say hello first - is it ignorant / offensive to not say hello to people you work with when they dont either.
do you have to fake friendliness in work / public?
is it expected?

Why is it that peeing in the bathroom at work is acceptable even if other people are in there, but we are supposed to feel ashamed of pooping? Where has the negative social stigma come from?

The comany I work with always does a Christmas dinner at the owners/bosses house, and every year we exchange Christmas gifts but I am hopeless at picking things out. Please help with some ideas. I am a female (early 40's) and I work in an office with a 25 year old male, in our other office there is three females all early 40's and one female 22, two males, (one of them being the owner/boss) both early fourties-None of us (other than the boss) has very much money so we like to keep the cost down. any suggestions?

I looked for an Emily Post version to copy and paste, but apparently she doesn't address this topic. Looking for something in between "We're broke - so no presents!" and "What the heck is she talking about????!!!????" Something simple, with a little tact and flair, that won't make people feel like we should be their Christmas Angels this year.

Thanks!

It is obvious I need to quit. I already know that. I will be quitting within the next year. HOWEVER I need to know what some good tips are on hiding the smell of smoke on clothes and fingers.. I smoke very little because I am hiding it from everyone I know.. nobody knows that I smoke. I've smoked now for 12 years,and I am going to be quitting soon but I need tips on hiding the smell as I am in a new office that I REALLY dont need anyone knowing about this. Also.. my fiancee is anti smoking.

I am troubled that this might be a selfish act. I get a better product at the expense of someone else. If everyone acted this way, wouldn't it corrupt the system?

I got an email this morning from an old acquaintance. It was a forward that had photo attachments of pornographic pictures of a woman I know and her dog. I dislike this woman a lot. She has caused a lot of problems in the past for me, and I have not spoken to her in a couple years. I do have her email address and phone number still, however.

I think it's funny that these pictures are circulating, however I do feel sorry for her because I wouldn't want anyone circulating nasty pictures of me (However, the dog is a bit much- I would never take pictures like THAT). I feel like she has a right to know the pictures are circulating, but I don't want to start any more crap between her and I by being the one to contact her. I'm afraid she would somehow try to blame me for it happening or I'm afraid she would be rude to me if I mentioned it.

Also, her husband works for an internet company and I'm afraid to create a new anonymous account to send them because I'm sure he could trace it.
