Yesterday I was at work when a manager from another department approached me after struggling to find something for like five minutes. He asked me if I knew the location of an item. I explained him that we normally put that item...

LovingLife139 Oh, dear. Lack of common courtesy and no indication that this man understands that others are human beings with feelings. This man sure is a charmer, isn't he? You know, in these types of situations, I don't allow myself to become a doormat, and yet I...

You are either for Jesus or against Jesus? Really?

sarahruthbeth22 @sarahruthbeth22 (43143) • United States 18 Feb 13

I have never thought about it This way! Is this viewpoint the reason some Christians hate non Christians? They think they hate Jesus? Wow! I thought non Christians were just people who didn't follow Jesus, period.I thought they...

LovingLife139 I have heard this opinion before, but I do not understand it. I am a Christian, but I am for my own reasons and because of the experiences in my life that have led me to it. Just as I have my reasons, I understand there are others who have reasons against it...

LovingLife139 Wow. The minimum wage is high where you live. It's $7.85 where I live. I currently make $11.00 per hour working full time for a corporate office near me, which is the highest wage working for someone else I've ever had, and I'm extremely happy with it. Hearing...

Do you think that women shouldn't work?

Dominique25 @Dominique25 (9464) • United States 5 Jan 13

Many people have the thinking that women should just stay home and take care of their husband,children, and home. How do you feel about that thinking? My husband said to me today that I'm basically saying I don't want to be a...

LovingLife139 See, if that were me I'd ask my husband, "Wait, you don't want to stay home and take care of the kids? You don't want to be a father?" There are two sides to that coin. If your husband feels so strongly about someone staying home with the kids, the position is...

Would you be ok with working by yourself?

911Ricki @911Ricki (13588) • Canada 1 Dec 12

The job at the pet store is famous of this, now that I have a key and code for the store they are constantly leaving me by myself. Now my other job at the worm farm I get left alone but they check up on me. But its out in the...

LovingLife139 It depends on the job. I've managed offices by myself before, which I consider fun since I like directing myself in my work and tend to do a better job that way. However, working by yourself in retail is ridiculous and dangerous. I obtained a job back in...

Long hair vs short hair...

ctryhnny @ctryhnny (3460) • United States 2 Dec 12

I'm 65 years old and my hair is down to my waste. The last time I got a haircut was about 10 years ago. I love my hair although sometimes it's a pain to take care of. It takes forever to drive and since I color my hair that is a...

LovingLife139 Long hair on older women...why the heck not? Based on first impressions only, I would think more highly of older women with long hair than older women with short hair, simply because they wear it in direct opposition to what society says is okay. But...

can a business refuse any person who does not pass its standard?

Cutie18f @Cutie18f (9551) • Philippines 17 Nov 12

I really do not know how to phrase this, but this topic is inspired by another topic which I recently answered about a barber refusing to cut a woman's hair on the basis of his religion. It sounds ridiculous, but I think the...

Who is your best friend or do you have one?

raydene @raydene (9871) • United States 6 Oct 12

So who do you consider your best friend? The one you can share secrets with and you know your friend will go to their grave with the secret still all locked up in their head. The one who is always on your side even if...

Did you get worried about stretch marks?

bingskee @bingskee (5234) • Philippines 14 Sep 12

Stretch marks are results of rapid weight gain or loss. I think most women suffer from this. It is not a disease but it can be a cause of shame for some others and prevent them from wearing bikinis or swim wears or show some skin...

Do You Still Manually Write Things Down? What Was It You Wrote?

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 6 Sep 12

LovingLife139 I always write things down by hand like this. Calendars, appointments, events, etc. I get on my computer randomly so I can't be certain I'll get a notification when I need it. Also, I have a terrible memory. Once, I tried to use an online calendar program, and...
