alkivt @alkivt (34) • Cyprus 11 Nov 09

I know how to be diplomatic but when you suddenly realise that your boss is more a double face.., not only with you but with most of the employees and other people he is dealing with, how would you react. Especially when you are...

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63235) • United States 10 Nov 09

picking up some kitty treats for my client. I turn around and there's this young man looking at flea products. Being the nosy, buttinsky that I am, I said: "I wouldn't buy anything by Hartz." He started then said: "I've...

nearpoint I commend you for your kind deed. I don't use Hartz because it doesn't work and I have been warned off of it. At one time, I used Frontline but stopped because it quit working. When I mentioned this to my vet, he told me that fleas were building up an immunity...

Beauty or Intelligence?

bubblepink @bubblepink (694) • Philippines 9 Nov 09

Guys, please don't lie. We know that most people prefer Beauty than intelligence. No both because we know It's rare. I heard it from this mornings radio show. Dumb women are always showered by everything. Can you agree with that?...

nearpoint Here's the deal with men preferring beauty over brains in women. Back when we were worried more about living to see the dawn than whether we should get the latest cell phone app, men sought out the young, strong, beautiful women to mate with because that would...

Is it possible to be just friends after a break up from a long relationship?

incredibleDNA @incredibleDNA (1742) • Philippines 3 Nov 09

My ex keeps on coming back. We broke up few years ago but we got back to being best friends as what we've started years ago. He told me that he still wants me to be his bestfriend. I just don't know what to do?? I still love him...

nearpoint Trying to be "friends" with your ex if ridiculous. It is only going to cause problems for you and your new man. I have never associated with any of my ex-wives. If there isn't enough between the two of you to have continued the loving romantic relationship...

Do you take medical leave when you are sick?

Lee Ka @kaka135 (14916) • Malaysia 3 Nov 09

Well, I'll definitely take medical leave when I am sick, as I can't really work and I prefer to take more rest. But I have some colleagues who do not really like to take a day off, even the doctor asked them to do so. I don't know...

nearpoint I think companies send mixed signals to employees. On the one hand they say, "Oh please don't come to work if your sick. We can't afford to have you infecting the other employees." (This is true.) On the other hand most companies don't give out enough sick...

What was your first job when you were growing up?

vingyan06 @vingyan06 (2486) • Malaysia 3 Nov 09

I think most people went for their first job before they reached the ideal age to work. Many of us may want to earn a living, or just to help up the family or just for fun of it or to earn some pocket money. So what was your first...

nearpoint This should be a no brainer. In fact you have already answered your own question. You've been with your current boyfriend for 10 months. You love him. He loves you. It's serious enough for you to discuss marriage. The other guy hasn't seen you in a while...

nearpoint I play the piano. You can't really go wrong if you know how to play this instrument. Here's why. Anywhere there is a piano or keyboard, you're good to go. You don't have to drag your instrument around with you. You just sit down and let it rip.

Do all American believe in God?

kidboy1988 @kidboy1988 (110) • China 6 Aug 09

Maybe because of Hollywood movies' influence, many Chinese people thank that American all believe in God.Is that true? If you do believe in God, do you really think God exists? As a Chinese, I'm really quite curious about this.

nearpoint Yes, God exist. No, not all Americans believe in God. I like to use this analogy. Gravity exists. You can not see, taste, hear or smell it but it does exist. You can choose to not believe in Gravity but if you step off a cliff, you will see the results of its...

racional @racional (8) • Brazil 14 Apr 09

I grew up listening good rock, like Yes, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Frank Zappa. But, after the mid 80's, no rock band had the same quality of the 60's and the 70's, and none catch my attention with good riffs like Eruption (Van...
