I am going to write my boss to tell him that I am completely disappointed on his decision of promoting someone who has been around for just a couple weeks. Although his ridiculous decision was never approved by Human Resources, I just want to let him know that I am disappointed and totally turned off that he even came up with that stupid idea. Can anyone please let me know how to start this letter? What should I tell him?

I ask this because I am amazed at the abuse I see on answers , both ways. Are we not supposed to be friends or is that all just politics.
I am a Brit and see many differences between our cultures but would never say I dislike all Americans.Can people just accept the differences.

I am used of eating rice with a spoon, but my aunt and cousins disagree with it and tell me to use a fork. Is a fork the more proper way? I do not prefer using a fork due to the fact that while utilising a spoon, you can scoop up more rice.

Do you like shopping?

Tonight, I was at the grocery store and I was standing in line about to be waited on when this guy walks up to where the baggers are usually located and tells the cashier that he wanted cigarettes. So, she tells him that she has a customer (me) and he completlely goes off. Yelling at her because "he saw that she had a customer and he wasnt asking her to let him go before the other customers". When 1) he was not in line and 2) if he wasnt asking her to go before me why did he tell her what he wanted. Why didnt he just wait until she was done with me? Or better yet get the hell in the line and then when its his turn tell her what he wanted? Correct me if I am wrong but I think its very rude to make demands of a cashier when they are waiting on or about to wait on another customer. If its not rude at the least its inconsiderate.

I am 22 years old college grad and a stocker at an office supply store during one of the most hectic times of the year. I make 9/hr. I have been there for about two months, never really liked it, but lately I can't stand it.

There is a manager added to our shift because we are understaffed and desperately seeking help, but this guy brings with him complete obnoxiousness rudeness and unrealistic expectations.

I am responsible for stocking the furniture that comes in (the most strenuous work in the store). A lot of the time when we are falling behind on the general stocking, I have to help them and wont touch furniture for a week and when I finally do its built up and expected for me to finish in a day.

So I try to work my *** off and as a result injured my lower back about a week ago and I was out for a week.

I feel it is the right thing to do to at least stick around until the back 2 school season is over, but everyone is telling me that this isnt worth it how do i quit?

You know the kind who act like they're making a porno or think they've invented the act? It can be very annoying when you're trying to sleep and have to work the next morning.

Is it unhealthy, and why?
Does this bother you, men? or does it turn you on when a woman doesn't change her drawers often?

The other day i had to open at work for my supervisor(husband had some tests). I had to go in at 8am. I got there a few minutes before hand, and i probaby got to my station at 8am. There was a lady waiting there. She wanted lottery. I told her that it would be a few minutes because i had to get them in. She was PISSED. She says "You guys are suppose to be open at 8am". I told her "No, i got here at 8am and it will


Oh and the store itself opens at 7am. The place i work at in the store (videos,lottery,tobacco) opens later. The pharmacy opens later than i do.

I just finished up a big project as an interior designer on a custom home. I want to send the project manager, assistant project manager and job superintendent each gifts to say how much I enjoyed working with them. All three of these individuals are male.

Any suggestions are appreciated, but please don't be disgusting or rude in your answers.

I wanted to know how other people feel about this because I think it's so freaking rude how people will come and stand right next to you and light up!!! I am 7 months pregnant so it's quite obvious I am pregnant and I have had people come and stand or sit right next to me and smoke and they get offended when you get up and move and even more offended when you ask them to move....it's a scientific fact that second hand smoke kills so why should those of us that dont smoke be subjected to the crap? I feel like if you want to smoke and kill your self go ahead but dont bring others down in the processe....have enough decencey to not smoke right next to Pregnant women or Children or The elderly .....am I the only person that feels this way?

All of a sudden everyone (family, old friends, random acquaintances) is asking me if I am single. Then, when I say "no," I am instantly hit with some variance of, "Don't worry. You still have time."

I still have time?! Yes, I'm 23. I haven't graduated from school yet. I would say I have plenty of time and I wasn't even thinking about "time" until everyone else started bringing it up. They also keep dropping hints that they expect me to meet someone at any moment. Like my aunt telling me to watch my weight because I might meet someone and want to have kids sometime soon?!

I don't know where this is coming from, but I just want it to stop. I'm okay with being single, but it seems like everyone else is upset about it and I'm NOT going to be in a relationship because everyone else wants it. My brother is 30 and single and no one is even pressuring HIM.

What can I say to make them shut up about it?

I live in nyc, takes me 45 minutes by bus to get back from where he lives. im a student, my brnd is 29 and has a great job.I dont live in a good area and he knows i like to be home before 10pm, he never offers to pay $20 for a cab.
So he was waiting with me for the bus, i realized i left my art portofolio at his place, He said he would get it for me, it took him a long time to come back down. The bus came at 9 and the next one was 10 pm, i decided to get on the bus because by 10 and getting home at 11 im scared.
I didnt have my cell phone but he left me a nasty message at home saying how dare i take off like that and not wait for him and he said he almost threw my portfolio in the garbage. he said he left my portfolio with the doorman and i can pick up tomorrow because he doesnt want to see my face.

I have a hobby which involves making things out of wood, plastic etc.
It means using an electric bench sander and occasionally a jig saw. The jig saw is used for no more than a minute usually - and that's it for that session.
The sander is used for maybe a few minutes at a time, maybe 6 times per session. A sessions may be once per week, one per fortnight or even once per month. A session may last 1 - 2 hours.
My miserable and grumpy old man of a neigbour, ranted and raved about it the other day (even though I hear power tools being used almost every day from other nearby houses, that he hasn't complained about)

How can I do this without bothering him and therefore getting me a load of earache and hassle. (PS: He's the sort of very sad loser that calls the police over for the slightest thing - you know who you are if you are reading this you sad B*****d)

to talk so loudly that other workers can't concentrate or hear the customer on the phone??? Are they afraid? Can't they discipline people who are loud and annoying? It causes people to make errors, effects productivity, etc. I just don't get it. I guess they would be accused of trying to take away a person's "right" to talk as loud as they want.

He eats with his fork in his right hand. Even though I'm left handed I've never done this. It drives me potty. He doesn't think it's important, even if he eats out, but I told him people will judge him for this. Know it sounds snobby, but that's the way I am.
