I just found out that a co-worker who used to be in charge of my newest duties was getting paid an extra $1500 per month to do them! I'm supposed to be getting a raise... or at least that's what I was told FIVE months ago! I'm no good at taking up for myself, but this really has me mad. What should I do?

After all this stories about people returning money makes you wonder if it's just that they're scare or they are honest.

Thanks again for helping me. You came to my desk just the right time when I needed assistance. I consider all this as God’s timing, and I want to praise Him because I see this as God sending you to me for help.

I'm the type of person who if I like someone I give them a gift. Nothing expensive and I'm not trying to get something from them. I'll notice something a freind likes or they mention and probably get it for their bithday or holidays, unbeknowngst to them (like a surpise). There is someone I know who even if I give them something, anything they feel compelled to return the same thing. They accept what I give them, say thanks and a few days later return the exact same thing. I tell them this isn't necessary but they insist. It's like they owe me which isn't what my motive is. Why would someone do this and should I stop doing this or just with this person. Thanks

And if they are rude or without respect is it because they were never taught, schooled properly, or their parents gave them no moral compass, or maybe they were taught but since their status in "their" mind is high, they go about acting rudely and poorly?

he pursues a girl for a long time, he tries to get introuduced to her, or even follows her around just to be near her, or calls her name, or tries to get a date from her, but she ignores him, because she doesn't care for him, how would this guy feel? Would he be hurtful and mean, and then say nasty things about her or what? Guys, what would you do if you tried everything and this girl ignores you or doesn't acknowledge you?

Many children in the world do not get the love and attention from their parents. Did you hug your child today or at least tell them you loved them?

If you didn't or never have, is there a reason why?
Is it because you never were yourself?

Never mind the basic necessities or the latest materials you endow your child with, or car, or parties. That is trivial and of no vaule unless accompanined by a hug and love.

HUG your child today because I guarantee they will LOOK for love in all the wrong places, and you my dear parent are the sole responsibility.

I wonder if people who consistently run late, I'm talking 30 minutes or more, are trying to be rude. Or are they just not able to plan ahead? Or what is it?

Seems that dress codes are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Good riddance, as far as I'm concerned! I remember pantyhose being a requirment for ladies at my first job. I could never understand how putting your legs in sausage-like casings makes one work better. Where do you stand on the issue?

I'm 17 and at college and there's a man from the Cez Republic in my class. He's 28 and doesn't work. Up untill 2 weeks ago, I worked as a waitress, but then the resturant closed down suddenly and I don't have a job anymore. The other day, I was telling a couple of people in my class how hard it was for me to get a new job, that I'd sent of loads of CV's and applications forms, but no employers were getting back to me, ect.... Then the CR guy began to say "Well, you have to keep trying harder, you can't live of mummy and daddy forever". That struck a nerve, and I replied "Excuse me, I'm not living of anybody, I still have money in the bank from my last job, and at least I'm not coming over here from a different country and sponging of British tax payers!" I'm not normally like that, but I count myself as a hard worker and was just frustrated because I couldn't a job interview. I feel a little bad now as I felt I was a bit harsh, and have to face him again next week. Was I a bit mean?

I had a friend who went barefoot alot and never cared about what she stepped on. For example where where at her sister house and she step on one of there kids shoes and stood there while she was talking, I asked her later if she knew she had stood on it and she told me no, she dose not care about things she steps on. What about you?

We had a bet on how long we could continue peeing in a large bucket in our bedroom before it smeled too bad to keep it in there.

Well, 3 weeks went by and it smelled so bad infact that when either of us peed in it, we had to cover our faces because the pee would displace the urine in the bucket and make the whole room smell really really bad.

We finally got ride of it when my roomate was peeing in it after 3 weeks and 4 days. It smelled so vile that even with her face covered by her shirt, she threw up under her shirt and all over the place because of how bad it smelled.

This was not a joke anymore and wasn't funny by the way.

So we tried to get rid of the bucket but we were dry heaving just trying to move it. We eventually covered it witrh plastic wrap and then moved it outdoors. We dug a hole in the backyard and pour it in the hole then covered it back up. We then put bleach in the bucket and let it sit.

Everything is fine now but the room now has a faint odor. WTF

I have a tendancy to get into tit for tat arguments I dont want to be in. For example to use a trivial instance, today at work we were talking about winning the lottery and what we would do with the money. Others were saying fairly small scale things such as 'buy a car'. I said I would like to win 20 million - causing a workmate to say she would prefer 20 people to get a million each. I said I would give 19 people a million each out of my 20, to wich a guy said 'I really doubt that'. I thought that comment was a little insulting and didnt want to let it pass, so said something - he said something to top it - putting me in the position of eating it, or escalating a silly argument. How do others disagree and defend themselves without this happening?
