Etiquette - May 2007

This Saturday i am attending an American wedding for the first time and do not know what kind of dress is appropriate. Please help. Wedding is going to be at a Catholic church and then a party at a posh country club. Should only the bride wear white? what's the rule?

I don't like the bride and I don't like the way she treats the groom. She even crashed his bachelor party! Is it awful not to go or do I have a right to chose to go or not?

if 2 guys get into a fistfight it's no big deal.If a guy EVER hits a girl, even in self defense,they get tons of crap from people.I know violence is the last option to consider when solving a problem,but if women are so strong why can't they take a punch? I asked several of my teachers this and they said I had a valid point. My school counselor even said it's a gender bias against men.

I have this neghbor who is constantly harassing me. I live in a house with three other roomates and my neighbor calls the cops on us all the time. During the day, at night, all the time. We are not even loud. We dont even play music anymore and he still bitches. The other day he bitching at use cause we have been to queit and he wants to know why. I am completely fed up and I am wondering what I should do. Should I pour clorox bleach all over his wife's plants in the front yard? Should I feed his dog a big sponge soaked in gravy so it'll expand in his stomach and he'll die? Or should I pour cement down his fresh air vent on the sidewalk so all of his toilets back up?

Me and my boyfriend have been living in this appartment building for about a year now, we have upstairs, downstairs and neighbours on both sides of our appartment. Everytime we make a little too much noise they leave a note in our mailbox telling us to keep it down in a very rude manner. Once they left an add for earphones, making remarks about my orgasms ?? anyway..
We've managed to keep it very down and be more careful but they still seem to complain and leave their stupid notes in our mailbox or on our door.Our radio and tv is always at a low level, any lower we wouldnt be able to hear, yet they still seem to leave notes about noise and complain to the landlord on numerous occasions.I am very respectful towards my neighbours and always have been, I know what it is to have a loud neighbour and wouldnt want that on anyone.Yesterday we had our tv on, next thing I know we get another stupid note in our mailbox telling us to keep it down and that they even gather together TALK ABOUT US?

My husband works at a production plant and is continuously having his lunch stolen from his lunch bag. He cannot keep it in his locker as it is not allowed in a food plant. So it is kept in the break room. This isn't accidental. The bag has his name on it. The Supervisors won't do anything, he's made complaints. It is closed campus,meaning he cannot even go to the parking lot for break. He works 12 hour shifts so this leaves him without food for a long while. I don't want anything illegal (mostly) but, something that will definetly make them think twice o n doing it any more. I'd like to thank any devious minds ahead of time!

My wife and I own an apartment on a second floor. Our neighbor from downstairs complaints that we have messed up her roof in several places and also the cabinets in the kitchen because of some past leaks from our apartment. Now she wants us to repair everything. Whenever there was a leak in the past we would deal with it and fix it. Now she says that when she enters the apartment she smells humidity and she fears for her health. We called a plumber and he said that everything is dry and found no present leaks at all.You can tell that there have been some water infiltrations because there are some spots in some areas of her apartment but believe us its really manor. This is a very troublesome neighbor and it's very clear that she wants to take advantage of the situation,she even threatened to complaint to the city of Coral Springs if we don't take action. We need an advice. Thank you

I tend to get offended when strangers refer to me as "hon" or "sweetie". To me, they are terms reserved for friends, family, and children. I'm entering my mid-twenties and I will admit that I look fairly young (I've been told I could easily pass for fifteen with no makeup on), but I can't help but feel patronized when women not much older or younger than myself say this to me. It's like they assume they know me and/or how old I am. It isn't flattering, it just tends to annoy me. Maybe I'm just uptight but does this ever bother anyone else? I feel like people shouldn't refer to strangers like that... It just seems more cordial.

Are they usually okay with this? I don't want to be annoying, and I don't want to get too many "no's"...

My manager is interviewing people and he will bring them in the office to introduce them to us.

Reason why he is doing this in the interview is whether they will fit in with the rest of us.

The manager has seen about 5 people today.

The manager said.. 'what about the west indian guy, shall we take him?' ( I am assuming the manager could not remember his name)

One girl (White) shouted NO! So abruptly.. bearing in mind, she was not in the room at the time of the introduction.

I am 1 of 4 black girls, the woman that shouted out NO is white and the manager is white as well.

This white woman also said about a month again to the manager ' Why are you recruiting so many black people?'

I'm not sure what I think of the tradition. It would be fun to do one, and I've seen them done, but from an ettiquette standpoint, is it tacky? Would my guests be offended? Also, is there one right way to do it? I've seen glass boxes used at Italian weddings and I've heard of people actually pinning money to the bride's dress at others. Not sure if maybe the way you go about it has a lot to do with how people respond to it?
