24 months in the relationship = 2 years

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 25 Oct 09

I didn't really know how to put a title on this discussion because I don't know what it's called in the first place. But I have come to notice something over the past few years. It seems that most of the new generation people...

Califclasy Simply put, the younger generations don't need commitment. College degrees and higher wages have made it possible for people to live without making a marriage commitment. Everyone wants their cake and to eat it too. Marriage can definately be stressful and it...

Hi friends, yesterday was my daughter's 14th birthday, she invited some of her close friends and had a lunch party at our place and in the evening we had a small family party. My ex wife (my daughter's mother) and we had been...

Califclasy I think it would've been nice for you to quietly have called the mother to see what was causing her to not call her own daughter. If she had a reasonable answer, perhaps this could've all been avoided. Best case, you could've let her speak with her daughter to...

Califclasy How about trying this - pick a subject that you like and know a lot about, preferably something you feel a passion for/about. Find a blog to start with and freely express yourself about the subject you chose. It is always easier to express yourself when you...

A lot of my MyLot friends have been suffering through my sniveling and whining about a friend who is borrowing and borrowing from me. I FINALLY let her have it about how much it is costing me to keep loaning her money!!! I didn't...

Califclasy You did the right thing. I've had people like this all throughout my life. Friends, family and work. Blood suckers. As I've grown older, I've been more upfront when abuse starts to take place. I am currently in a position at my work place going through this...

Califclasy I've not been able to find any sites that pay remotely close to my day job. I've been looking for a couple of years now, always hanging on to the dream of being able to work in my jammies while still being able to support myself. So far, it is still just in...

90% pay cut for all elected servants.

xfahctor @xfahctor (14118) • Lancaster, New Hampshire 23 Oct 09

I am proposing a pay cut for all elected servants, a 90% pay cut. They took money and wasted it, squandered it and acted in gross negligence and iresponsability. I cannot take credit for this idea, it came from the 'pay czar'...

Califclasy I agree with a much needed pay cut for our elected officials. Perhaps a cap on pay, per position, would be beneficial. The fact that Congress gets full medical coverage for something ridiculous like $40/month is appalling. The President should command the...

As a manager - is it important that your employees like you?

taraelocin @taraelocin (1138) 23 Oct 09

Today one of my colleagues said: "I really hate my boss. He is so annoying!" Another colleague answered: "So what. He's good at his job. You don't need to like him!" That made me think. It's true, it is not the managers job...

Califclasy As a manager, it is extremely important that you remember you are a manager only as long as the employees allow it. Most of people's success is garnered from others doing their jobs well. Too many managers get sloppy and have the "I deserve this" attitude. If...
