I work in a office with about 20 other people and enjoy 1/2 a glass of Coke every 2 days or so. I don't mind sharing my drink as long as I'm asked. HOWEVER, I only get to drink 1/2 a cup from each 2l bottle I buy. My office is next to the kitchen and I can see who goes in and out. When I leave the office for the morning or afternoon My full 2l bottle is always taken, not even the empty bottle is left behind in the bin. I buy the 2l because I don't like the taste of the canned drink and 2l coke costs the same as 2 cans here. I am part owner of the company. I have no idea who is doing it but it is seriously pissing me off. How would you approach the situation?

We moved in our new home last November. When the weather broke a bit, my next door woman welcomed us. The rest has become a nightmare! Anything you've done, she's done better.
She gets incredibly drunk and comes to the door unannounced at all hours.
My husband and I are very non-confrontational ppl, so we've put up with her.
Last week, however she came storming to our door drunk, and demanded to speak to us. She went on and on. Ranting about me speaking to her husband at the fence, about me being a liar, about my husband being a coward, and that we were no kind of friends. This argument was precipitated by the fact that 4 months ago her husband had made a sexual suggestion to me, which I immediately discussed with my husband and it was decided that if it ever came up again it would be serious. But nothing further was said. However she found out somehow. And over she came.
Personally, I know she's going to want something from us before all this is through. What do I say to her ?

I graduated college 2 years early and never sent announcements. I am now moving to Las Vegas to finish my last two years of college and would like to send out announcements.

How do I send out the announcement without looking like I am just trying to get money for the move?

Would it be rude?

And no one understands you and there aren't any worms in the garden to eat.

When you find out that your favorite friend has tapped your telephone.

When everyone sings better than you do, including your best friend who is a violinist, for pity's sake.

When you somehow lost your new bottle of shampoo on the way home.

And please don't answer with "What the f***?" because I do not know what that means and you know I don't.

love,
Lakshmi

p.s. It's a rough Saturday night and it's going to be an even rougher Sunday morning. I can tell already. Will you please find my oboe? It is missing. Thank you.

When my brother gets upset with me, he plays on my phone. Isn't that a bit immature? & he's not the only one-my who family does that. Or they'll call from somebody else's # & tell me something insulting & laugh.

The male neighbour saw her at the window and proceeded, on two separate occasions, to "relieve" himself. Needless to say, my friend is shocked but doesn't know what to do. She lives in the UK , so what does the law say about this?
He could argue that he can do whatever he wants in his own garden (assuming he even admits it). However, she could say that he did it because he saw that she was at her window.
Personally, I think one should have the right to look at a neighbours back yard and not see something like this.
What can the police do? Would she need photographic/video evidence to get something done about this?
This sounds laughable, and it almost is. However, from her point of view it's quite scary to say the least. Thanks.

A friend suggests going to dinner for my birthday..their suggestion not mine. I say that I like Olive Garden. So, we get there, and then said "friend" says she has no money and *I* end up paying for me AND her, at my so called "birthday dinner". What would you have done? I was really mad.

I don't want to do anything that would offend their culture. I think that eye contact is a no -no and touching.

Without having to do the following: insult them, saying shut up, any kind of physical violence, changing the subject, walking away, ignoring them, and pretending to listen?
