My co-worker is having a Backyard BBQ to celebrate her and her husband's 1st anniversary. Should I bring anything like a gift or card or something else? It's going to be very casual with her family and friends.

I just picked up the cleaning job at my doctor's office where I work and was told that I would get a flat fee of 130 bucks extra a week to clean twice a week.

Well I got my check today and taxes were taken out like usual, but even money was taken out of my cleaning...needless to say the tax deduction was higher because I made more.

Should I curiosuly ask my boss about the "130 flat rate" for cleaning and tell her I didn't realize that money gets taken out of it or should I just let it slide...we are talking about a decent difference that I should be getting...

Yesterday I went grocery shopping and one of the baggers helped me out with my groceries, even though I told him that I could take them out myself, that i didn't have anything to tip him with,ect. He said that it's a service which the grocery store provides and he didn't need a tip. He was very sweet, but I left feeling guilty. The reasons why I feel guilty is that a) I'm perfectly able-bodied and b) even if a tip's not expected, I would sort of feel better if I could tip him. Should I feel guilty?

I tend to avoid loo trips during meals, although when they last a long time and there's a lot of wine flowing, this isn't always possible, so I dissappear between courses where possible - any other tips for timing visits?

I'm a loner/outsider. I'm a student, so I'm constantly around people. I don't like to talk, and would rather go to class and do my work without being bothered, but it seems I can't get through one day without someone trying to make conversation with me. For instance, I'll be on break, reading by myself, and someone starts talking to me (someone who has seen me around). I just want to finish my work in peace. I'd like to go back to my apartment and study, but all the stuff I need to do research on is on campus. Or I'll be at a bar/cafe/lounge, and someone will come up to me, ramdomly, and start making conversation, while I sit there, frustrated, and wanting to walk away. It's not that I hate people, but I like peace, quiet, and I really don't care about what people have to say about the weather and sports and television and I hate being hit on...

What can I do to avoid conversation without appearing rude and arrogant?

I have been living in my condo for about 6 months and in that time I have become acquainted with of of my neighbors. Now this lady comes over constantly several times a day, and acts like she doesn't want to leave. It has gotten to the point that when I come home from work or school, she's knocking on my door within five minutes, its like she sits in the window waiting for me to come home or something, idk. Before I can even jump in the shower, here she comes. I make excuses to get her to leave, like "I'm going to take a nap," or something, and she gives me just enough time to do what I said, and then she comes back. It's gotten to the point that when I see her coming I turn off the lights and t.v and try to hide, but she knows I'm home because she sees my car. What do I do? I don't want to hurt her feelings because I like her, but I just don't want to be bothered all day. Every 30 minutes she finds a reason to come over. Help me please.

There's a woman in my department that has been condesending and short with me when I was training and would sometimes refused to help me even though she was supposed to do the training. Very two-faced.
One minute she's cool the next she's talking crap about you behind your back. She's treated me like an idiot.
Today when everybody left the office and it was just her and I she called Human Resources to complain about how she's treated "badly" and that our boss has favorites. All because she wants to start getting off work earlier on our busiest day!!
I called my boss on her cell and told her what I heard. Ofcourse she was very upset.
Do you think what I did was mean or wrong??

for a bother to give his sister a dozen red roses because she is going to a prom if she has a boyfriend that she has been dating for around 2 years. Why or Why? Do you think a brother should give her flowers at all if she is going to prom. If so, what kind?

I have foodstall for foreign workers at a dormitory. The workers read little English or none at all. The problem is that they have a habit of leaving the disposable plates and cups on the tables after eating. There is coffee, tea, curry gravy all over the tables. At the canteen there are posters 'Keep Clean and Clean your tables after eating'
Either they don't read or just lazy is not an excuse. There must be a way to make them aware of keeping the environment clean. I have placed stickers 'Please clear the tables after eating' on the tables but they still do the same things.
I would like to have some good pictures that I can print. Words seem to have no effect.
