Off-Topic / Re: Do you give a TIP for Take Out Orders?....

« on: October 26, 2012, 02:50:51 pm »Message ID: 629917

I only tip if something was delivered.  Otherwise, I don't bother like at counters where there's a tip jar.  I used to work in a place like that and I never minded if the tip jar was empty.  I was only doing my job and got paid anyway.

I don't use my cell phone much, only if it's an emergency.  I don't like to use it at all, actually.  I like to be as disconnected as possible and just stay aware of the world around me.  I feel like it isolates people.

Unfortunately I work with a lot of people with no work ethic.  They do their job (barely) and that's it.  They don't bother to help anyone else because they have the mentality of "that's not my job".  It's sad, but you're right.  That's the way people think now.

Off-Topic / Re: Are you happy with your life?

The biggest regret I have is that I dropped out of college before getting my bachelors degree about 10 years ago.  I'm happy to say that i am currently enrolled back in school and working towards it.  I'm 40 years old and it's scary as hell because I'm doing it all online and it will lead to a career change, but this is something that's been on my mind all these years and I feel like it's something i need to do.

While I'm at it, maybe I'll have an imaginary party and drink an imaginary toast to all my imaginary friends.

It's great that you're concerned for her.  Unfortunately, with computers, IPhones, and IPads everywhere these days, it's hard to get teens to get off the couch and away from the screen.  Maybe you should have her stay with you for a few days and find out what she's interested  in.  Perhaps she's depressed or there's something going on at home.  Spend some time with her so you can find out what's going on.

Off-Topic / Re: why

This problem begins at home, with how the parents are teaching them.  My father made it very clear to us that cussing was not allowed and his forceful yell made us scared to do it.  To this day I'm not very fond of cussing.  Unfortunately, if no one disciplines them at home, then trying to get a teacher or bus driver to do it is hopeless.

Congrats on going back to work! You'll get used to it.  Yes, it's tiring, but it gets easier.  Actually, I am starting back to school part time in the evenings after working all day.  Talk about tiring!  But it'll all be worth it in the end.

Every year I wait until the last minute but I'm happy to say that this year I have started early and I feel really good about it.

I sing in an acoustic duo on the side.  I also like cooking and exercise.  I also read a lot, I don't watch a lot of TV, I find it annoying.

We have recycling here and I do think that everyone should make an effort to do it.  I cringe when I see a can or bottle or newspaper in the garbage and i usually fish it out so i can take it home to recycle.  This world belongs to our children and grandchildren.  Let's keep it clean for them.

« on: October 15, 2012, 10:14:13 am »Message ID: 622924

If I'm not mistaken, I think it says in the rules that we shouldn't promote other sites.  You might want to check out the rules.  Having said that, I personally think FC is the best and I don't use any other sites.

I haven't seen anything strange in the sky, but I heard on the news there was something around here recently.  Have you seen something specific?

Offers / Re: Credit Revoked

I had the same survey revoked as well, and now I'm under $25 so my cashout was revoked as well.  Oh well, now I know better and I'll leave a bigger cushion before cashing out.  Strange that a bunch of us had the same survey revoked.

I was all set to get paid on the 20th but I had 3 surveys revoked so now I'm below $25 and have to wait another month.  Oh well, next time I'll have to leave a large cushion so I don't go under.
