What Would You Do?
We all believe our faith will get us to heaven but The Bible says that many will be cast down even having performed miracles and casting out demons in the name of Jesus so maybe you missed the point and your faith wasn't enough. So...suppose the rapture comes and you are still here...you know the bible and this is your wake up call. you refuse to accept the mark of the beast because you know it will damn your soul to hell. according to the Antichrist now in control you cannot buy or sell with out the mark. people are hunting you... police have your name on a list.... I could write a book about this call it "Still here"

Lets say I had a roommate. Then lets say he got him an enormous girlfriend that eats up all our food, drinks our beer, and loafs around the apartment making a mess when I'm at work. Would you mention it to him or just tell this manatee how it is. 0 -
I know what I will do, but I am curious as to what everyone else would do.
Supposed you found a 9 year old home that you liked and made an offer that was accepted. Then suppose another house came on the market that was 10% cheaper, BRAND new (a previous deal fell through), same builder as the one you are buying too and in a neighborhood that you liked better for a VERY comparable house.
Ok now suppose there is a contract technically that you could use to legally get out of the original contract with no (financial) liability.

Halve of this is my fault---the other half is the seller's fault.
Shopping for a particular pair of Skecher sandals and bought a new pair at low bid (only bidder) for $35.00 with free shipping.
Now, sandals arrive---not the same as the ones pictured in the ad---open toe was pictured---closed toe was received which I don't care for. (preposition, I know)
Seller's description (which I'll admit I didn't totally read) stated "closed toe".
I bought them primarily by the picture because it was exactly the style I wanted.
What would be an amicable ending to this?0 -
Watch the whole thing.I have to admit I would leave,if I was with the family.I would stay if with a buddy.

Job/Career related
My status: I am 32 and the sole Process Controls Engineer at a large and very complex Corn Wet-Milling Plant. We produce 240+ different Starches (industrial and food), molecular and physical modification processes. Our facility is the pride of the North American plants. We grind, dry and pack out 4.5 Million pounds of starch a day. Treat 2.5MM gallons of water, generate power (650# Steam Turbine), 220,000 lbs/hr of steam, 5 - Medium Voltage (4160V) Air Compressors, 8 drying operations, a refinery, etc. Everything from 1200HP Medium Voltage to robotics to tiny animation. Think of me as the Med-Low Voltage Electrical/Software/Automation Engineer for the plant. Both Projects and sustaining. Without sounding too much like a douche, my future is pretty bright in my role and with my company.
Now Back Story:
In October of last year we had a global meeting. All of my peers from the other plants got together for a week to meet with vendors, discuss standards, issues, network, etc.
One of the folks is the E&I project Manager for an expansion project in Nantong, China. Our company bought a small facility there in 2014 and we are expanding (equivalent to $30 million). He asked for help on the startup of the plant in the spring. It was to last 3 weeks March into April.
I volunteered and they asked me to visit for 2 weeks this winter to help set up and confirm proper programming, installation, train them on VFDs, etc. I spent 2 weeks there in mid-December. My role has quickly escalated from "support" to Full Controls Engineer for the project. They've handed me all things Automation and I return Friday for 15 more days. I have been assuming that my last trip (late March) will be my last, and will be for 3 weeks.
Last week my SVP visited and we were discussing the project. Me told me that on-top of the trips I've been planning, the start up will be 3 months.
Tori is not really happy with it and I don't want to live in that miserable place for 3 months. Brenly (my 6YO DD) rolls with the punches, it takes a lot to upset her and she's pretty much OK with anything. BUT, I've never been away for 3 months. At the same time, I can't turn my back to it and hand someone else all the work I've been doing (especially since they have no one else).
I would appreciate some thoughts and insight. I don't want to stall my career and this project is a big deal, both to the company and to my resume. It could also open up projects that need my help in Sweden and the Netherlands. I also have to keep in mind, that it may never stop and I could be travelling 6 months of the year for the foreseeable future.0 -
You are going to a family reunion at a large campground. You plan on doing some target shooting. You get to the gate and they tell you not only is shooting not allowed, but that guns are not allowed in campground and must be put in the gun safe in the main gate station. Would you tell them about all 7 guns in the truck? (You haven't mentioned shooting so they don't know that you have them.) Would you tell them that you do not have any guns? Would you tell them that you have 6 and keep one for protection?
What would you do?
I should mention that this is a private campground, not federal or public land.0 -
I am always honest about that stuff 0 -
Same exact thing you did. [;)][:D] 0 -

Anything else would have been stealing. You did the right thing! 0 -
Certainly, I always correct the cashier. I wouldn't steal anything.
But now I can't stop thinking about venison summer sausage. [:p]0 -

Nothing, it probably would have come from that cashier's pay when she came up short.0 -
Your honesty will be repaid tenfold. 0 -
I would do just as you did....I do not want any money that is not mine. 0 -
I tried paying a cashier with 6 SBA dollars once, the gal had to call her manager because she had never heard of them. 0 -

One time at Mickey D's I ordered a breakfast and it was $3.88. For grins, (I'm a meanie, I know) I put I pulled out a $5 and said "oh wait, I've got the .12", and put .12 on the counter. You could see the wheels start turning, and turning. Then there was a sound of grinding gears...and smoke. Then the bulb of enlightenment came on. The dude pulls out two $1 bills and, get this, puts .47 in my hand, and with a nod says "Thanks".
???????????????
How the heck he ever came up with that I'll never know, but he was sure proud of his mathematical achievement. I cracked up! About that time the manager came over to see what was going on. I put $1.23 back on the counter, winked, and walked over to get a straw. They both must have stood there for a full minute. I think they eventually chalked it up to a charitable donation!

Gave a cashier $10 bill for a $9+ ring up. She put the bill in the register and pulled another $10 and change out. Before she could close the drawer, I told her I gave her a 10. She asked "Are you sure?". Told her "Yep, positive. As a 10 was all I had on me". She was very appreciative. 0 -
Never cheat a small business. That might just be the family's only profit that day.

I have done the same on numeous occasions, although sometimes I could use the money I would ache in my heart for having stolen it. 0 -
You done the right thing and someday in some way will be rewarded for it. [:)] 0 -
I remember a time just before Christmas a few years ago when I went into a store and cashed my paycheck. The girl counted out the money and handed it to me. I went to my car and then got to thinking about what she had said. I recounted and had $100.00 too much. I got out and went back inside, against the protest of one of my fellow workers whom was with me. Told the girl and she said she had made no mistake. I had her get the check out of the drawer and look at it. She had to count the money three times before she realized that in fact she had given me too much. She then tearfully thanked me and explained it would have come out of her paycheck. That would have been money she would not have had at Christmas time. Moral, if you take what is not yours, someone will suffer and the next time just might be you. 0 -

Your change is $3.28 not $2.47 what is wrong with them [}:)]0 -
I try to get rid of spare change in my pocket,so whenever I order food or anything at the register I give them some amount where I should get back change without pennies. You would not believe some of the amounts I have recieved. Then you try to correct them and they get huffy with you.. One time I bought a lottery ticket and won $160.00. The cashier pulls out a wad of $20s and starts handing them to me while counting..10,20,30,40,All the way to $160...BUT he actually gave me $320..So I gave him back $160 and he thought it was a TIP.. WOW 0 -
