A women who came for an interview now has got the job?

Question by : A women who came for an interview now has got the job?
Ok , the situation is a lady come for an interview last week where i work and a 2nd interview yesterday, it turns out she has got the job and starts on Monday. Although she wont be working for me, she will be working under another team so it doesnt affect me.

I dont know where to start, she is a man, she is a really a bad looking man in drag. i feel so embarassed about it and embarassed for the chap who recruited her. I am not sure if i should say anything or if its any of my business in the 1st place.

Just imagine a stockyish man, must be 55 years old with slapped on makeup and marker pen eye brows i think and a husky voice. Not only that but she looks like what i would describe as a rugby player wearing old fashioned womens clothes.

Should i just get on with my own business or say something?

You should get on with your own business, she isn’t in your department, you don’t have to work with her and she may well be the best person for the job!

Q&A: TRanslate PLEAseeeee??IN ITALIAN!!!?

Question by B§*°*D@rkGirl*°*§S: TRanslate PLEAseeeee??IN ITALIAN!!!?
The product that has given the world its best-known taste was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886. Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a local pharmacist, produced the syrup for Coca-Cola®, and carried a jug of the new product down the street to Jacobs’ Pharmacy, where it was sampled, pronounced “excellent” and placed on sale for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink. Carbonated water was teamed with the new syrup to produce a drink that was at once “Delicious and Refreshing,” a theme that continues to echo today wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed.Thinking that “the two Cs would look well in advertising,” Dr. Pemberton’s partner and bookkeeper, Frank M. Robinson, suggested the name and penned the now famous trademark “Coca-Cola” in his unique script. The first newspaper ad for Coca-Cola soon appeared in The Atlanta Journal, inviting thirsty citizens to try “the new and popular soda fountain drink.” Hand-painted oilcloth signs reading “Coca-Cola” appeared on store awnings, with the suggestion “Drink” added to inform passersby that the new beverage was for soda fountain refreshment. During the first year, sales averaged a modest nine drinks per day. Dr. Pemberton never realized the potential of the beverage he created. He gradually sold portions of his business to various partners and, just prior to his death in 1888, sold his remaining interest in Coca-Cola to Asa G. Candler. An Atlantan with great business acumen, Mr. Candler proceeded to buy additional rights and acquire complete control.

A Symbol
Pens for businesses

Image by Earthworm
During my shamanic workshop on dreamwork we did an exercise in which we were to ask an ancestor for a symbol. This was not a journey, just a visualization. I picked an ancestor from my English side and visited a grey haired crone at her cottage where she was in the garden. When I asked her for a symbol she held out a mushroom of the many in the garden. "That’s too easy," I thought because of all the shamanic associations with mushrooms. "That’s not it," she said, "I’ve got something here". She was looking at the ground and reached down searching. She brought up a triangle made of three sticks tied together with leather twine and gave it to me. I was stumped at what this could be and was pleased at that.

In the next exercise we were to journey to that ancestor and ask what the symbol meant. I journeyed to the upper world and found her in a classroom with a stage. I sat in the classroom by myself with the company of my familiar who had scampered up from the lower world as I ascended. She stood on the stage and with the help of a projected powerpoint display showed me that the triangle was a tool I could use to determine the three most important aspects of a subject; this would help me to keep my life in balance. For instance the three cultures of my birthright—Thai, English, American. Or in writing—the author, the audience, the message—story, self, message. In business it would be the client work, marketing and accounting.

Other elements could be hung on it, but she said to keep it simple because I was not great at math. I asked if it was a dinner bell as I was hungry for lunch.

"No it doesn’t ring," she said firmly. Then the powerpoint showed me a pen and ink drawing of the three sticks in a triangle. "It is also decorative," she said and the drawing grew vines on the outside of the triangle to form a circle as one might decorate a drum. I had just been thinking about how I could decorate my drum.

After the journey the teacher mentioned that such a symbol might be displayed on a special shirt. "Funny you should say that," I said.

funny or not: 10 worst company domains?

Question by :-) : funny or not: 10 worst company domains?
Everyone knows that if you are going to operate a business in today’s world you need a domain name. It is advisable to look at the domain name selected as other see it and not just as you think it looks. Failure to do this may result in situations such as the following (legitimate) companies who deal in everyday humdrum products and services but clearly didn’t give their domain names enough consideration:

1. A site called ‘Who Represents‘ where you can find the name of the agent that represents a celebrity. Their domain name… wait for it… is www.whorepresents.com

2. Experts Exchange, a knowledge base where programmers can exchange advice and views at www.expertsexchange.com

3. Looking for a pen? Look no further than Pen Island at www.penisland.net

4. Need a therapist? Try Therapist Finder at www.therapistfinder.com

5. Then of course, there’s the Italian Power Generator company… www.powergenitalia.com

6. And now, we have the Mole Station Native Nursery, based in New South Wales: www.molestationnursery.com

7. If you’re looking for computer software, there’s always www.ipanywhere.com

8. Welcome to the First Cumming Methodist Church. Their website is www.cummingfirst.com

9. Then, of course, there’s these brainless art designers, and their whacky website: www.speedofart.com

10. Want to holiday in Lake Tahoe? Try their brochure website at www.gotahoe.com

Calling ALL dog ‘experts’ – really need help?

Question by x !! Me !! x: Calling ALL dog ‘experts’ – really need help?
My 2 yr old corgi is a nightmare and i need help with the following. His behaviour has completely changed:

When he was a puppy we trained him to keep off our decking due to him peeing and pooing everywhere, and as the kids play there it was obviously not good. However, over the past 2 weeks he has suddenly ‘forgotten’ that he is not allowed on this.

He keeps coming on it and doing his business everywhere…

we have tried firmly ‘NO’… doesnt work.
We tied him onto his kennel for short periods but he chews through whatever we tie him with… (including 4 leashes)
We bought a ‘time out’ pen, which has no base so he pushed the pen over to the grass and tried to dig his way out, resulting in our grass being ruined…
We now purchased a cage with a base and he continually breaks out of it, so we secured the end in which he breaks out. He cant get out…

we leave him in this for 10 minutes at a time and let him out only for him to run straight past us and onto the decking?

He is like a dog possessed just now and i feel i have tried everything.

Any answers will be appreciated.

Please note we only leave him in this for 10 mins, then let him out, when he goes on decking, we put him back in.

Oh and the other day he tried to escape and jammed him nose!!
We are going to put a gate up this weekend. But i made a ‘gate’ by jamming his pen into it, and he squeezed throught a hole so we put things all round it to stop him coming up but he eventually get up. He is only ever out the back several times a day and when he is in the house he is loved and played with.
Can I just say he goes for two 30 minute walks per day, sometimes more. He doesn’t really pee on the decking, more spraying. Its the simple fact he walks on the decking and he has even started chewing the stair on it

07/07/10: Governor Quinn Creates Illinois’ First-Ever Sales Tax Holiday

CHICAGO — July 7, 2010. Governor Pat Quinn today signed legislation to create Illinois’ first-ever statewide sales tax holiday to help families pay for back-to-school essentials, such as new shoes and school supplies. “Back-to-school shopping can be expensive and difficult for families that are already struggling to make ends meet,” said Governor Quinn. “From Aug. 6 through 15 the sales tax holiday will boost Illinois businesses while helping every child in Illinois get the school supplies they need to succeed in the classroom.” Senate Bill 3658, sponsored by Sen. Deanna Demuzio (D-Carlinville) and Rep. Keith Farnham (D-Elgin), creates a sales tax holiday starting Aug. 6 and running through Aug. 15. During the holiday, the 5 percent state portion of sales taxes collected at retail registers will be waived; while local government sales taxes will continue to be collected. Parents in Illinois spend between 0 million and .2 billion every year on back-to-school supplies. Virtually all of the supplies that schools require children to have on the first day of school — paper, binders, pens, pencils, crayons, rulers, erasers, chalk, tape and glue — will be eligible for the reduced sales tax rate. Clothing that costs less than 0 per item, such as shoes, outerwear, uniforms, gloves, hats and mittens, is also eligible. “Both consumers and businesses have been crying out for relief during this difficult economic downturn,” said Illinois Retail Merchants Association

Do you care about dolphins? Must see YouTube video. CBC Dolphin Dealer. www.youtube.com “A haunting film about the largest capture and export of wild dolphins in history, perpetrated by the world’s most notorious dolphin dealer, Canadian Christopher Porter.” What is REALLY Happening in Mexico? The Mexico Tourism Board and itravel2000 have partnered to launch a consumer-to-consumer web blog. These chaps are not consumers, they are not even reporters, they are pitchmen for businesses. We also found this: “Despite protests up to 200 bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops aduncus, Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins) from the Solomon Islands were captured in the lawless Solomon Islands for export around the world. 28 arrived alive in Cancun, Mexico July 21. Two more are believed to have died already. On the scene in Cancun, Ben White of the Animal Welfare Institute, reports that he could hear the dolphins scream 200 feet away from their pens. They arrived in small metal boxes with a sling. No water appeared to be in the boxes. The boxes were dragged across the sand. A Mexican animal protection group, Conservación de Mamíferos Marinos de México (COMARINO) filed a lawsuit to challenge the legality of the import permit to Cancun. COMARINO’s lawsuit against the Mexican Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources claims that Parque Nizuc’s permit was incorrectly issued and that the ministry should have revoked the permit once government officials learned that certain conditions were
