Jane and work
By: voterperson | 03-06-2008
This happened in 1987 when my friend Jane was at work. Jane was talking to Nancy and Bob (one of her seven bosses). Bob: ?Nancy you are skinny?Jane: ?What about me?Bob: ?Jane you are fat, Nancy is skinny?(Bob knows Jane is very obsessed with weight)Later on Jane thinks Bob said to her that he was only kidding. And she DOES Know for a fact that her bosses always said ?Jane you eat to live, we live to eat?Any way in 1987 Jane was taking massive doses of vitamins and minerals and she thinks she blew up like a balloon.Even though Jane has an excellent memory in this case Jane cannot remember if the incident with Bob is real or she imagined it. So Jane called me and asked me what I thought and I told her the following: No one would flat out tell someone they are fat unless it was a joke. They might say something like you know you are a little bit overweight or something a bit more polite. Jane the incident could be real because you did say Bob told you he was clowning around. Also guys like to annoy girls and play on their sensitivitiesSo my questions: Do you agree/concur with me, and why or why not -details please?

By: scottsdale | 24-04-2008
I have 6 convictions for driving with a suspended licence. All court fees and court suspensions have been lifted. However, upon reinstating my licence at dmv, they informed me that I am not eligable due to the convictions and I "possibly" have to wait 6 years before consideration. I am finding that there is not a set policy or statutes concerning this. A hearing officer will not hear my case either. my licence is in limbo. The origional suspension was for failure to pay a fine. Is there a policy or a set of laws? What are my rights? Scottsdale, AZ
