Schooling vs. Working

pjsr18 @pjsr18 (340) • Philippines 9 Sep 09

What do you think is more difficult? Going to school or going to work? Students say that they want to graduate to escape from the stressful life due to school works but they don't think of the bigger responsibilities when they...

southernmostbird I find work more stressful, but mostly because my parents/student loans cover my living expenses while I was in college. School also didn't feel like work to me: my only responsibility was to learn and get good grades. While I do enjoy my work (I'm a...

Did you adopt or buy

RoryGilmore669 @RoryGilmore669 (13) • United States 10 Sep 09

I was wondering if you adopted or bought a dog? I wanted to know because my friend adopted a dog and it has horrid aggression now that it got at there house but the dog they bought is the friendlist little thing.

southernmostbird We bought our golden retriever and he's as friendly as friendly gets, but I do have a lot of friends with adopted dogs that are also nice. I think the dog's temperament depends on a lot of things: it's age, how it was treated prior to being bought/adopted, and...

southernmostbird I play Hatchlings; I agree, it's addictive. I started with it just before Easter and did collect all the eggs at some point. I haven't gotten much into this round (I think I read that it started in July), but have started to get some new eggs in the past few...

southernmostbird I never wash my face before bed unless I've gotten unusually sweaty or dirty during the day. I do always brush my teeth and floss before bed, though. I end up washing my hands only because the last thing I do before bed is use the bathroom.

Do you hate when people ask you to guess....?

Bethany1202 @Bethany1202 (3431) • United States 9 Sep 09

Do you hate it when the subject of age comes up and someone wants you to guess their age? I think it's often an uncomfortable situation. Let's say your boss and you were talking and the subject of age came up. (Yes, I know...

southernmostbird I can't stand people who do this, either. It's annoying and puts everyone in an uncomfortable spot. Whenever someone does this to me, I make a joke out of it. I say something like: "You can't be a day over 21" and try to make light of the situation.

What kind of attitude to invite big income from online?

riani2009 @riani2009 (581) • Indonesia 9 Sep 09

I am a person who get bored easily. But, I realize that I have to do something to have extra income and one tool that I have is my laptop and internet connection in my office. I have joined surveys on line and PTC sites, still I...

southernmostbird I think the biggest key to earning online is to have a good work ethic and to be willing to put in actual WORK. Survey and PTC sites are fine--if you want to earn a little extra cash, but the real money comes from treating online work like a real job. Most...

southernmostbird I've been in a similar position before and I think the bigger problem comes from second-guessing superiors. Although sometimes, as a worker, it's easy to predict what an outcome will be, it is necessary to defer to higher-ups and consider their ideas, even if...

What would you do......

dpk262006 @dpk262006 (58673) • Delhi, India 10 Sep 09

Hi friens! What would you do if you do not succeed after making all your efforts to accomplish a task, project, mission, goal or assignment. You know it that you worked very hard on your project and you went out of your...

southernmostbird For me, it depends on the reasons why I didn't succeed. If my success/failure depended on someone else's evaluation or opinion of my work, I don't beat myself up as much, but if my goal was completely in my hands, I do get down on myself. Every time, I do...

Survey Spot Surveys

Jennlk84 @Jennlk84 (4205) • United States 10 Sep 09

Are you a member of Survey Spot? Do you enjoy doing their surveys? Do you think that they are worth the time you put into them and the little you earn? Each day in my email I receive at least 5 invites to do surveys for Survey...

southernmostbird I've been a member of Survey Spot for almost five years now and have only made about $10. I didn't join for the money, though; I just enjoy taking surveys. I don't think it would be would be worth the time if you're looking to make extra cash, but I do find...

southernmostbird I rarely check prices before ordering. If I'm on a tight budget, I'd rather just stay at home. Since my significant other and I tend to go to the same places, we also know about how much the bill will be in advance.
