gnomeland yes i agree, why suffer more than you have to.I have friends whom have died of cancer and they fought to the end bravely but of course that may not be for everyone. if you are in agony everyday then why not release yourself to go onto the next life.

gnomeland I think it would bring luck in the form of the love of an animal into your life but only if you take good care of it. what will you do when it is the year of the snake or tiger? he, he.

What do you think of this rule in a company?

youless @youless (112742) • Guangzhou, China 28 Nov 10

Some companies don't allow love issues. Namely if two colleagues fall in love and then get married, then one of them should quit the job. I can understand it but it seems to be cruel in my opinion. What do you think?

gnomeland i think it is crule as a lot of people meet their spouses or partners at work. if you are expected to leave then secrecy will occur and that is not good for anyone. i do think that a husband and wife should work in different departments at work though to avoid...

Vocabulary

I've noticed in quite a few movies and broadcastings that english speakers tend to use the word 'gig' while referring to some sort of tasks/talents/items. May i ask what exactly does it refer to in which particular context?...

gig

1 response

gnomeland hi, this is a well used phrase in england. a gig is often when a music group are performing. 'we have a gig on wednesday night at the local pub'. 'our gig was a success lots of students turned up'. hope this helps.
