Etiquette - June 2007

My neice's wedding is next month,and I'd like to purchase something that I could wear again,like perhaps to work,or something. I found a nice pant suit,with a jacket that's got austrian crystals on it,quite elegant,but it's black. I thought it was ok in this day and age,however the woman at the dress store thought it was inappropriate.. Any feedback on this one?I believe her wedding is 3 pm

I'm a teachers and I have a co-worker, I'm not to friendly with her, but I believe she dresses inproper for her job. Ex. She is at least 200 lbs and she wore white tights too small for her at least 2 sizes, with white panties( hanes!), with a red shirt that was too small for her. I could see even the kind of panties she had on. The pants were so tight that they were almost see thru and you could see every dipple and strech mark in her butt. Im not doing this to critize but I work in a Middle School setting were we have a hormones gone wild! Would you say something to her or to our supervisor, what would you do?? what should I do??

I saw on freecycle someone asking for a free car for a single mom who was is tears and not sure how she would get to work. Her car was a lemon and died and not worth repairing. I offered to give my car that was for sale. The friend that posted the ad was 'moved to tears'. Than I didn't hear anything. I emailed a few days later and she said the mother would decide on Saturday. I felt upset. Not only was this mother in a position to 'decide', but she was functioning all week without a car. I felt taken advantage of and withdrew my offer on Sunday, mentioning that I also am a single mom and will sell it and spend the money on my own family, as the situation was not 'dire' like I thought. I got an angry email about how she is taking the bus and I, as a parent 'should' understand that busy happens and kids get sick. And thanks but no thanks. If you are not understanding she does not want it.

e went to Burger King for lunch. If you are are parent, or plan to be one, I think you should read this!
The four of us, Kevin, I, Michael, and Landon were sitting at a table eating our late lunch. I will NEVER again in my life go to another burger king. One of there cashiers or whatever he was, threw a french frie that hit Landon in the back of the head! I am outraged! The shift manager did nothing. He said to calll in the morning and talk to the head manager. How dare this person not be fired already! HOw dare he not be suspended! Landon is a baby. He is one and one month old. What kind of parents raised this person to think it is ok to through food? Let alone at an infant! I am calling first thing, along with the health inspector, newspapers, etc.... I am also posting this on aLL my accounts like yahoo to let you guys know what kind of a society we live in. I was raised not to throw food, I am sure all of you were raised the same. Landon is fine, thank god. But its the princliple. What if it hit him in the eye.. Wtf is wrong with society?On the way out, I left all our wrappers and drinks and the food on the floor. Figured that they needed something to do, seeing as on the way out I stopped this man from getting food at burger king, I told him what had happened, and i bet he is still wondering why any one would throw a french fry at a child! I think he went to Arbys... I told him it was better anyways... I am now boycotting Burger King. How dare they mess with my sons! Its a wonder why I am not currently in jail with my Irish temper.

I sent a close relative a gift quite awhile ago for a special occasion. I mailed it to their home and I know they received it because my mom mentioned it. I don't expect to be thanked profusely but an acknowledgment might be nice... so at least I know they got it. Am I wrong in wanting to at least know they received it? (The only reason my mom knows is because she saw the gift in their home, not because they told her to tell me they got it.) I always make sure to let someone know I got their gift or thank them for the gift. Even if it's a few weeks later.

Usually, when people get angry they change their looks and personality just instantly. The last time I got really mad, my co-worker told me that I looked like christopher lee on Dracula. He said my eyes were big and viscious, ready to suck the victims blood! Ha!! (Thanks for that comment, John)

Just for fun guys. Had anyone told you what you'd looked like when you're angry? Who do you look like then??

Hi,

I'm attending an Indian wedding in the very near future, but am stuck on what I should wear. The Indian wedding will be conducted accoring to a branch of Hindu, called Jain.

Firstly.. I'm caucasian English and have been specifically told by organisers that I'm not required to wear any Indian style clothing.

I was going to wear a stylish but not over-elaborate black dress but am now worried that black dress might be considered wrong or offensive at an Indian wedding.

Any helpful thoughts please ?

I have always wondered why a good portion of men who go out are always talking to the slutty dressed women. My friends and I are always "Jazzy" but with good taste and we are sometimes left behind because the "trashy" takes over the room, why?? You would think a "good" man would want a woman who takes care of herself and a woman who actually cares about how others view her in public??
