daniellej Was it a private Christian school? If it is, was it written in the rules and requirements to not have facial hair? If so, the parents shouldn't have put him there. But if it was a public school without that rule, then shame on the principal. That's just not...

daniellej well if you've only had three jobs, you need to list them all. i'd say if you had other, more relevant jobs that you could omit them. but since those are your only options, you should put all three. it shows that you are capable of holding a job. good luck!!

daniellej Yeah I totally agree. I think it's cute to have babies taking pictures with Santa, but only when they're not crying. If they're crying, take them back. It's not like they can do the traditional, "What would you like Santa to get you for Christmas?" thing ......

Serve god...how?

cudamani @cudamani (996) • India 15 Dec 09

daniellej I don't think it's only the needy and the destitute that we need to serve. It's all people. Even people who aren't in distress and poverty need the help of others. It's important to think of others and give yourself unto others. "Every man shall give as he...
