Do You Consider Yourself A Hard Worker?

lynnemg @lynnemg (4529) • United States 9 Jan 09

Be honest, when you are a work, do you give it your all and take pride in what you do? Do you step up and take on more responsibilities when you don't have to? Do you willingly help out your co-workers?

Kimberlyr I consider myself a hard worker and I have been rewarded for that. I went from starting out in a very entry level position at a company and ended up as the business manager. I must qualify my comment by saying I work hard mentally. When it comes to manual...

Kimberlyr I would like to add to this discussion from the perspective of the daughter. My parents divorced when I was 6 or 7 years old. My mother would bad mouth my dad (and she had every reason, he was unfaithful to her, left her with 6 kids so he could marry his...

Kimberlyr No, I have no short term solutions but I feel your pain. About 4 years ago I was fired from a company I have worked at for 15 years. (I refused to do something I felt was unethical and illegal and got the boot) So I started the process of applying for...

maildumpster @maildumpster (3815) • United States 9 Jan 09

I'm sorry I have to air a complaint about myLot. Well it isn't about myLot itself but rather people on it. I know most of us are here to make money. I know I am. My pet peeve is newer members who answer questions with one word....

Kimberlyr Maybe they think they are helping you out by responding. I am new here and so am just learning the ropes but isn't your earnings increased by how many responses you get to the discussions you have started? So if that is the case, even though they have nothing...

Kimberlyr I have just been a member for a very short time so I don't really expect a whole lot of earnings at this point (that way I am not disappointed). I haven't started any discussions yet, I have just been responding to others. I am just kind of sitting back and...

will you call someone's attention if his or her fly is open?

kenchiprincess @kenchiprincess (5296) • Philippines 7 Jan 09

This has happen to me a lot of times, a friend of mine forgot to zip his or her jeans and I happen to notice that it was open so i have to tell my friend to zip it so to avoid other people from seeing it as well. How about you?...

Kimberlyr Yes I would tell him or her that their zipper was down. Depending on how well I know the guy I will tell him directly or if I think it would embarrass him I would have another guy go over and tell him. What irritates me is when you tell someone that their...

Kimberlyr That is too funny. Do you think men with small feet have the same complaint about just having ugly size 5 shoes? On a more serious note lots of shoes (and clothes)just don't look cute past a certain size. Some shoes that look really cute in size 4 just don't...

Kimberlyr I think it is very important to share everything. That doesn't mean every little thing you do or say. That would be boring and you wouldn't have the time to talk about the important things. My husband got laid off from his job once on a Friday and wasn't going...

Finding Time To Scrapbook

I really have a hard time finding time to scrapbook. Does anyone else here have that problem? How often do you scrapbook?

scrapbook

7 responses

Kimberlyr I use to scrap once a week. I was able to do that because I had the space to leave everything set up and out and so could just spend 1/2 hour or so and actually accomplish something. I don't have that luxury any more so I scrap maybe once every couple of...
