I work with an elderly lady who can't seem to mind her own business. I'm the office manager and so she blames me for all her failings, like not getting raises, not being allowed to check voicemail, etc. She won't be honest with me about the way she feels yet she has no problem running her mouth about me and everyone else to anyone willing to listen. We have a very small office, there is only 5 of us here. So of course everyone knows what she says b/c that's how gossip is. Anyway, she's making my work difficult and making up lies to the boss and I want it stopped. How can I do this without stooping to her level?

school help... please?
Posted Sunday January 22 2006, 1:15 am
okay.. for class Im supposed to be doing a fake 'newspaper article' for the "54th black infantry regiment".. and it has to be around the date of december 1863... and it has to be from the point of view of someone around that time, so I was wondering if anyone could help me try to start it. It doesnt have to be like, pages long or anything. Maybe a good-sized paragraph or so.
So I was just wondering if anyone had any information on that, and if you could help me or give me tips to right a good article.
Thank you in advance, and I'll rate high.

My friend
Posted Saturday January 21 2006, 1:34 pm
My friend is a crybaby. I'm sorry if I'm being harsh, or freakishly blunt, but come on. The girl is thirteen years old, and she burst into tears when these two kids in my class wanted to see her yearbook. ALSO, she takes everything WAY too seriously. Every time anyone tries to offer helpful criticism, she gets all mad and starts talking shit about you to other people.
My question to you is...What do I do about this? Should I be friends with someone who is so...out of control? And what can I possibly say to her?

Not so telerant
Posted Saturday January 21 2006, 5:13 am
I worked for two company already. I am jobless now. I always feel not happy when my boss assign many tasks for me to do; they just talk about work, but never talk about salary.
My friends tell me that just do what the boss assign. It is not the time to think about salary yet.
I can not stand with it!
I really need advices!

boss wants criminal record check
Posted Friday January 20 2006, 5:59 pm
Does anyone else find this strange? I had gotten hired 3 months ago at a new store. Well I just found out today that my boss wants a criminal record check of everyone in my department. I also found out that it was only my department that needed the criminal record check. There are 7 of us that work in the clothing department. None of us handle cash, we just let people into the change rooms and put out new stock. Wouldnt they have asked us to get a criminal record check before they hired us? It's a little insulting to be honest.

what do you guys consider to be "popular? "
do you think someone that everyone knows of
(as in if sum1 said their name they would automatically know who your talkin about)
or someone who has a large group of friends?
(somone who hangs out with like 15 friends)
this is for a health project, those were questions to ask but let me know what you consider to be "popular" if you dont think its either i rate high thanx alot!

Asking a girl out
Posted Tuesday January 17 2006, 11:59 pm
I have known this girl since kindergarden right. Now we are in 8th grade and for some reason, this year i really seem to like her. I mean she is nice, funny, smart, and very beautiful. How can i not like her. But the problem is, i have trouble finding the courage to ask her out. I am good with girls in the sense of friendship, but when it comes to love life, im a mess. I am 14 and she is 13. i am 11 months older than her but i really dont see that as an issue. But i always get nervous when i tcomes to askig a girl out nd i did it once, she said ye, than rejeted me the next day. (that was a different girl). Is it normal to be that nervous? Oh and one more thing, what do you ask when you want to ask her out. I really am not good with "pick-up" line. Thanks

made mistake at work
Posted Friday January 13 2006, 11:00 pm
Today at my job I got to work a bit early as I always do, but then got distracted by my boss. She told me to go to receiving ( which is in the very back of this huge store) and to find all the boxes for our department and then bring them back to our section. While I was busy doing this I totally forgot to sign in!!! It was 15 minutes past when my shift started. We are on a computer system. We have id cards, sort of like bank cards that we have to swipe on our till. So anyways I RAN to the nearest till to log in. Now I'm freaked out because she made a huge deal about a month ago because once I had logged out 1 minute early. She knows I was on time but she'll probablly forget, and when she gets the computer records she's going to hav...

School??
Posted Thursday January 12 2006, 5:14 pm
Ok im 13 and im in 8th grade..and im already tired of school. Ok? Like i have a lot of friends i just dont like people and all the drama with my friends so it takes all of me to get up in the morning and go to school. Then like the teachers are ok and all but they just put too much pressure on me and i teach myself better than they teach me. So i want to be homeschooled for highschool...my sister said she would do it i mean she works at home anyway. But my dad doesnt think its such a very good idea because then i may not get into a good college but i dont know if i want to go to college...i really desperately need help.. should i stick it out and try for college or just be homeschooled what would you do? Also im pretty much inlove with this...

boss doesnt appreciate me
Posted Wednesday January 11 2006, 10:10 pm
What can you do when you have a boss that gives everyone else fun and simple tasks, but gives you the dirty work that no one else wants, PLUS doesnt appreciate your hard work?
I work in retail at a superstore in the clothing department. Because it's january, all of our hours have been cut, Well anyways my boss told me today that she wanted me take down everything from the shelves and windex the shelves, plus our display tables. I had to take off all the nicely folded clothing and then spray our tables, wipe them, then put all the clothes back on. I worked my ass off, and all the other girls working got to do fun jobs, like setting up displays and customer service. After my shift was over (and covered in dirt) I said goodbye to m...
