: this girl called me a few mintues ago to work for her tonight , but the problem is it is my birthday today and i dont want to work on my birthday..i told her that and she said "well then i am going to have to work tonight" i told her sorry and she couldn't even say happy birthday and i thought we were friends.. maybe her mind was too occupy thinking about someone to work for her and that's why she could not say "happy bday to me",.. so why didn't she say happy birthday? should i tell her she hurted my feelings?

If you tip like a drunk, does that make it ok?

When the bar is all packed, is the seat too valuable for a non-drinker to be sitting in?

I'd love to hear from some bartenders/bar owners on this.

I frequently encounter people who seem to take me as the perfect audience for stories of their trip to New York fifteen years ago, diatribes against vegetarian food, or tales of childhood trauma. Sometimes, my housemates have guests over who do this while I am clearly trying to cook, eat, or make my way past them to get to my room. Sometimes, it is a random person in a coffee shop.

How do I make it stop?

Tonight I was at a Dairy Queen with my 17 year old daugter, As we we're sitting at the drive-thru waiting for the next car to pull up, I noticed there was a man pee-ing on the side of the building of the Albertsons Store, There he was in veiw of also the people inside D.Q. dinning inside..He was more the capable of using the D.Q. restrooms or even walk 100 feet to the entrance of the Albertsons Store and use their restrooms. To say the least I was quite upset with seeing this @ 9pm this evening and I yelled at this person, to go use the proper restrooms available, I also called him a freak, I wanted to say more, but my daugther was having a fit in the car, telling me that I enbarrassed her...I became upset because..I am tried of seeing things go on that are disquesting and rude and nobody says nothing! I am a 50 yr old woman and I would have beat the **** out of him if he came over to the car, Remember this was well lighted area! Was I wrong for saying something??

There are a pair of regular customers at my work who are transvestites first and foremost, but also believe they are vampires (seriously, I'm not joking).

My issue is here that they come into my work during the day, and pretty obvious to everyone that vampires can't walk around during the day light. How should i approach this situation?

Do you get mad when someone flicks a cigarette butt out their car window? I see this happen often. Is it necessary to do this?

Today I opened my mail and there was a package and it was the wrong apartment number. It was for the apartment over. I still opened it and there were four cards each in their own envelope (not licked shut just folded in). I opened them and in each there was $5. I kept the money and my bf and I just bought some beer. Am I a bad person???

I hate the smell of smoke, it makes my head pound and makes me very nauseas. My mom's boyfriend smokes alot and he smokes parts of it and leaves them in the ashtray for later (he doesn't put them out either the just smoke away) and I can smell it upstairs in my room no matter how much I spray, or how many candles i burn it doesn't help.

I am so miffed by THOSE PEOPLE who think that just because I'm reminiscing about power rangers I must be a retard! Stupid "if-it-walks-like-a-duck-quacks-like-a-duck-then-it-is-a-duck" pholosophy! Just because I'm reminiscing about power rangers, that DOES NOT make me a ******' RETARD, for the love of Christ!!!!! Besides, aren't I entitled to reconnect with my past, somehow, and remember my CHILDHOOD HEROES?! I have rights like everyone else, for the LOVE OF JESUS!!!!!

When you say thank you to a stranger they say "uh huh", is that a new trend, it started with "my Bad" then "my Fault"

That's funny because I know the Chopahn Restaurant in Sandiego has gotten rich off of me in tips alone! Actually, I have this little game I like to play when tipping. I'll usually bring like 30 dollars in one dollar denominations. Depending upon the size of the tip, I'll place a dollar bill so that it's half sticking out under every plate and wine glass. The waiters and waitresses love it. :) Comments?
