    Should I feel ashamed for working at Walmart?

    It's the only job I can get. I have applied to hundreds of jobs and went to so many interviewers and no one else hired me except Walmart who hired me on the spot. I like working here.

    Why is my coworker always wearing a hat?

    She looks Middle Eastern and she is always wearing a hat. I have never seen her without it and she never takes it off. I have never seen her hair on her head. Is she a Muslim?

    How do I deal with this coworker?

    She's not even my boss and works for another dept.  She has to work in my office due to limited space.  We're both on the same pay scale too, but she keeps saying, "If you keep smoking like that, how will you ever conceive?"   She knows I'm trying to conceive.  Then I if I'm two minutes or four minutes late in the mornings (I always make the minutes up anyway), she'll say, "You're four minutes late.  I thought you weren't coming in" and when another coworker wasn't well a few months ago and took a few days off, I asked her, "Are you feeling better now?" and this coworker said, "No, don't ask her yet if she's OK".

    Was this rude?

    My coworker was like "Are you shy?" I said yes. She said, "I noticed that. Why?" I said, "I don't know. I'm just like that." She said, "Are you anti social?"

    Is this an intrusion upon seclusion?

    Favourite answer:

    Yes.  Unless you are invited, it is an intrusion.  An invasion of privacy would be to enter without permission (not knocking asking for permission).

    What will happen to flyaway when yahoo ends?

    Does anyone remember her? She was the one who posted about giving a surprise visit to her aunt for 2 weeks without paying for anything, AND sleeping with her aunt's husband. She also told stories about her lesbian crush with her teacher and about some old Zumba lady in class. And also about sending 12-13 page long letters to her friends and wondered why they disappeared.

    Did he do the right thing?

    My old high school classmate saw me in the neighborhood and we fooled around a bit. Yes, he used me for his personal benefit but he did not lead me on or play with my emotions. He was honest and told me, "I don't like you at all or anything. It's just sex I want, that's it." Was this better than him leading me on and telling me he liked me when he didn't?

    What would be the appropriate amount to tip on a $135 for good service at a Sushi place? ?

    Some go by what they think they deserve instead of percentage. The amount for $135 at 15 percent is $20.25 Now if this person is paying for themselves shouldn't they pay percentage but when it's a group and one person pays for them all, should it be by what they think they deserve?

    Was this teacher right?

    She knows I'm shy and she keeps telling me I need to talk more. She said, "When you don't talk to people, they don't know what you're thinking. You need to talk!" She even mocked me in front of the whole school and said, "Sometimes I just want to slap her because she just stares!" 

    Was she being helpful at all by repeatedly telling me I need to talk? Or could she just have left me alone and let me be the way I want to be?

    Why did my coworker stop talking to me?

    I used to greet het and say hello, but then I stopped. She still kept trying to talk to me after that though. And when she needed to tell me something that was work related, she told me. I still don't talk to her, and she hasn't said one word to me, even if it is something work related. I guess she just gave up. Why did she stop trying?

    Did my mother ever love me?

    Did she ever love me at all that she would do this to me and abandon me all my life? 

    My first breath was the last of hers. I wish I could say I have celebrated a single Mother's day with her, or have felt, at least once, a mother's love, a mother's touch, a meal cooked by mom, but it will never happen.

    I think my neighbor is watching me? ?

    I am a 20 year old female living with my parents. a few months ago my parents had advised me to shut my blinds and window at night because they noticed our neighbor stands around my side of the fence a lot. I had simply told them he tends to go there to have private phone calls or smoke, so we all didn’t think much of it. as of late I notice his voice come out of nowhere on a phone call, or a glass bottle, presumably alcohol, be thrown into their garbage bins on that same side. today I was studying when I was watching their plants move from the strong winds through the cracks of our fence. it was until then that I noticed another figure moving, I quickly pulled out my phone and filmed through my window to the best of my ability and saw that it was a person shifting from side to side. I was too scared to film any better videos so I shut my window loudly and closed my blinds and I noticed that they were immediately gone. scary part of it is that they made no noise. my dog tends to bark near my window outside too, at night especially. should I wait to catch them again before telling anybody? thing is we are really friendly with our neighbors so I’m unsure how I could tell them that their dad is a creep...
