Etiquette - June 2007

Well, there's a few buttons opened & we're not sure if it's intentional. Everyone knows she's one hot professor on campus. So will she be offended if the guys stare?

They pay for a fifty dollar item with one dollar bills... They pay the exact change, in dimes and nickels... They want to pay for one item using three different credit cards... Or they even have their 8-year-old pay, and he starts counting the bills... As the line grows extensively long and this one transaction reaches 5 minutes long, are you frustrated?

Not that I'm planning on it. I'm just wondering cause I've seen guys grab a mannequins *** and dry hump them and stuff.

I guess I was just curious if they could get in any real trouble like have charges filed.

If so, I wonder what the charge would be.

A casual friend of mine passed away and he was LDS, and I wasn't sure what to expect at his funeral. Does the dress differ in their chapels? How long will the ceremony last? Any other information would be welcome. Thanks!

krap, and you know its going to be a bad one and you have been rushing to the bathroom but random things seem to keep getting in way... then finally when you find the bathroom and run in... it is filled with people? A. say excuse me and release the wrath of stink and weird noises B. run out and find another solution C. squeeze your a$$ together and hope every one leaves before you pop or D. open to any other answer or stupid idea!

By the way, in case you haven't noticed I'm pretty bored.

Hey. Let me get you caught up.

I work in a dealership and my coworker (who I dont really enjoy) caught a trojan virus on his computer. Along with about 38 other viruses and close to 300 adware and spyware. My boss asked me to clean it up and asked me privately if it was porn. I said i didnt know. Well today I was finishing cleaning it up and of course... I found adult friend finders and the like. Now this not only makes me really uncomfortable at my job, being a teenage and my co-worker being in his late 40's/50's but I also don't know how to approach my boss with this information.

How would you handle it and what should I do to make sure Im not in any danger. Usually its just me and him at the workplace. Thanks in advance for your help.

Looking through the obituaries, say you find that a friend from 10+ years ago has died. Would it be inappropriate for you to go to that visitation to pay your respects? Should you simply send a card or flowers?

I work at a pet store and I (along with other associates) have been having an issue with parents with young children. Parents will tell their children "If you dont stop doing (whatever it is that they are doing) this lady is going to (yell at you, be mad at you, etc) one mother even told her daughter I would hit her if she did not stop bothering her about a new pet!! That child then later asked her mother again and then saw me and started screaming and pointing, what do I do in a situation like this without being outright rude, which is really what I would LOVE to do?

My MIL called and said they were coming for a rare visit. They said they wanted to reconnect with our lives. She blames losing touch on taking care of her sick mother and helping with her husbands business, so she SAYS. But the real reason is she has been obsessed with her daughters toddler daughter. SHe has spent every weekend with them for two years. SO, imagine our surprise when she calls two days before their visit to let us know the daughter (husband's sister) and her baby can come too! My hubby and I are frustrated b/c we know we won't get to visit with them, only watch them hoven over the baby.

Well as annoying as it is to try to talk to them with that kid in the room, today they've told us we have to cut dinner short tonight so the baby can be home by 8 (not so she can sleep but so they can play with her). It's friday night and we're taking them to a nice restaurant. They only visit once a year so it would be nice if they just went along and let us show them our life.

My housemate told me last night that her ex-boyfriend (they split on friendly terms) said if he could describe her in one word it would be "alive". I think that is such a powerful compliment... Definitely the best one I've heard... What's yours?

Is it required to send a thank you note to someone when they are present ( no pun intended) when the gift is opened and a thank you is expressed at that time. Also thanked when the person leaves.

Okay, So I work in an emergency room and so I am constantly coming in contact with people from the community. It drives me up the wall when people can't pronunciate correctly or when you ask for them to spell they say it so fast you can't understand them. Also, why do people go into a public place without bathing. I swear the average person that walks into my office hasn't bathed in weeks and their teeth are NASTY! What the heck are they thinking!

My boss has asked me to compile a list of information on rock stars he likes. I have no interest in doing that, and it has nothing to do with my job. It's not what I was hired for. Do I really need to do this or how can I gently tell him I'm against it?

The package store closest to me has an XXX store next to it. I was walking out of the package store last night & saw a man leaving the XXX store with a big bag. He looked so familiar and then I figured it out - it was my priest in regular clothing.

I quickly took a cell phone snap shot with him holding the bag with the XXX store sign in the background. I took the picture because I didn't think anyone would believe me. Anyway, my priest knows I saw him.

Now I have a dilemma, I always owe taxes each year & am strapped. I want to use this picture to my advantage. I'm going to tell the priest I will expose the picture to the church community unless he gives me receipts stating I donated substantial amounts of money to the church. That way I can have some relief around tax time.

It is not like I'm asking the priest for money, this is simple for him. My wife is sickened by this and says what I intend to do is blackmail & monstrous.

How can I get her to see this is to help us?

The first rain and heat of summer have passed, and its time for mushrooms hunting. Ive tossed around the idea in the past, but figured id post it here to you guys for help. Should I tell the farmer that im a student looking to collect mushrooms for a mycology project and see if (s)he would be ok with that, or just forget about it and trespass. im not too sure whether or not the farmer would be suspicious, but ive hunted before without asking, and the result was ok. any thoughts? please no answers telling me not to do it thnx =]

In a restaurant... In the mall... Or even in the grocery store. They care not about the world, just that the other person can hear them loud and clear. Does it annoy anyone when everyone in the entire vicinity of this person feels included in their conversation?
