I also have a great amount of sympathy for those of us in this class who are more fundamentally challenged. The ones who seem to suffer from a complete lack of etiquette and common courtesy as well as from peculiar eating disorders. I get it, that home life must have supremely difficult, and the public school system was so lacking that no one taught you how to behave in public, and, specifically, how to eat in public. And how not to.

Food selection: if you are so unable to time manage appropriately, and/or you are utterly incapable of waiting for the break to eat, may I be so bold as to recommend to you what not to bring as your dish of the day?
Tuna sandwiches: they stink up the entire room
Deli sandwiches: see above
Apples, pineapples and other crunchy fruit: your helpless classmates are here to study. We want to hear the professor, not the gnashing of your teeth and the crunch crunch crunch
Chips: Really? I mean, really? Refer to above point about the noise. But to add, you’re dying of hunger, and you choose to stuff your face with a bag of chips? Out of all available food options? It’s not very healthy, you know.

I have been offered a second internship with BMW, a profoundly respected world leader in luxury automobile manufacturing, for this upcoming summer and fall semesters. Obviously, looking to significantly enhance my resume to a level enabling me to one day run corporate America, I will be returning to this prestigious multinational corporation. Therefore, returning to the pool for another summer would be like Apple CEO Steve Jobs returning to Foot Locker for summer employment, especially seeing as that returning to the pool would mean being a subordinate to a woman of below average intelligence with the responsibility of teaching "ghetto" school children various topics and subjects that they couldn't care less about. This would be the equivalent of Bill Gates (Microsoft CEO, in case you were unaware) applying to work as a personal computer salesperson in a local Best Buy retail store.

Hi Lauren,I'm disappointed in you. I'm disappointed that I haven't gotten a response to my voicemail and text messages.
FYI, I suggest that you keep in mind that emails sound more impersonal, harsher, and are easier to misinterpret than in-person or phone communication. After all, people can't see someone's body language or tone of voice in an email. I'm not trying to be harsh, patronizing, or insulting in this email. I'm honest and direct by nature, and I'm going to be that way in this email. By the way, I did a google search, so that's how I came across your email.

I think we should go out on a second date. In my opinion, our first date was good enough to lead to a second date.Why am I writing you? Well, hopefully, we will go out again. Even if we don't, I gain utility from expressing my thoughts to you. In addition, even if you don't want to go out again, I would like to get feedback as to why you wouldn't want to go again. Normally, I wouldn't ask a woman for this type of feedback after a first date, but this is an exception given I think we have a lot of potential.

Thanks, however I actually AM a lesbian.  I can
understand how you might hate lesbians, or feel angry
in regards to lesbians, but maybe you should lurk a
bit more?  I really am quite queer.

Thanks, though!

Don't let it look nasty!

From:  Store Manager

Good day everyone,

Just wanted to send out a weekly update.

First, the sale has officially ended. We did not do as well as I would like. We did not beat last year’s sales, but we did make up ground the last two weeks.

Next, I came in today and the break area was a disaster…people left their soda containers, bottled waters containers and someone even left their Chipotle bag and wrapper inside. This is just disgusting! If this continues, I will be not only write up the associate who left their garbage, but also the closing supervisor. Have pride in the store!

Every night, we need to mop the entire sales floor whenever there is snow or rain on the ground. It gets tracked into the store and makes the floors look nasty.

Let’s continue to focus on sales and customer service. It HAS to be our #1 priority!

Thank you for everything and let’s keep pushing!!

Thanks,

Boss

Working For Fools

From:  Store Manager
To:  Store Management (all)
Sep 5
Subject:  Nightly Deposits

Good morning,

Effective immediately per Regional Manager, all deposits must be brought to the bank first thing in the morning instead of being dropped off at night. You are to bring the deposit inside the bank and have it counted in front of you.

If any error if found with the deposit, you are to email (Department) and cc Regional Manager and myself immediately.

Going forward, starting tomorrow the opening manager/supervisor is to now come in 15 minutes earlier than they are scheduled so they have time to take the deposit to the bank and return to open the store on time. So for example: Normally, you are scheduled at 8:30am….you will now be scheduled to come in at 8:15am

Secondly, starting today, associates will now be assigned to a register. They are to only ring on the register they are assigned. Managers/Supervisors will ring on the same register.

Because of this, all three registers must now be open everyday.

Any overage or shortage of $5.00 or more on a register will result in the associates assigned to that register to receive disciplinary action.

If you have any questions, please feel free to see me!

Not Excepting Excuses

From:  New Boss
To: Department

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you ladies know that I will not be announcing any of my visits to any of the stores. You should keep this in mind daily to ensure that nothing falls through the cracks for my visits. Also, if I give you a list of things I want to see changed in any of the stores, do not tell me it's done and let me come in and see it's not done. I do not take kindly to lying and it will lead to disciplinary actions. I want to get off on the right foot with everyone and I hope you want to do the same with me. I don't except excuses, only results. If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks...

Friendship Lost?

From:  some_chick999@hotmail.com

To:  jsmith@gmail.com

RE:  Friendship

I cannot believe the things you've said to me lately.  I know I have problems that I need to fix, but you aren't being supportive as a friend should.  I have been self-absorbed in my issues right now because I've gone through a lot of changes and stress lately.  Most people would be understanding of something like that and would give their friend what they need: support, love, understanding, and time.

You, however, have done what you could to make me feel guilty for trying to get my life in order for once.  I have ALWAYS been there for you, for everything.  I know plenty of times that I've sat on the phone with you for hours, listening to the things you needed to say, and trying to help you as best I could.

You are not giving me the courtesy that one deserves from a best friend.  You are treating me as if I'm purposefully trying to upset you or ruin our friendship, when that is not the case.  I understand that you may be busy, too.

I can't believe that you could be so self-absorbed yourself to tell your supposed best friend that she needs to go institutionalize herself, that she's a bad friend, and all the other harsh things you said to me.

If you loved me and cared about me as you have said, I would have your love and support through it all, as I would do endlessly for you.

I do not expect or demand a reply.  I just wanted my rebuttal to get out there.

I don't need in my life someone that is going to harm me and try to drag me back down again.  I'm trying to fix things, and your attitude towards the situation is childish, immature, and very unfriendly and demeaning.

If anyone is being a bad friend, 'tis you, my friend.  Until you can know what it is to truly have a reciprocal friendship, I bid you adieu.

Celia

I think you sent this to the wrong email address. I don't actually know you.

From:  some_chick999@hotmail.com
To:  jsmith@gmail.com

Bill had broken up with me because I'm insensitive.  You and I had a falling out because I'm selfish.  Lucy is in the process of berating me about my bluntness and that it's hurtful.  I'm realizing that I've done something very wrong, and I'm trying to fix it.  I want to be a better person, the one that can truly be compassionate. unselfish, and be a true friend.  I'm working on it, but it's hard to do when everyone has left me.  I implore you, beg you, to love me again and allow me to atone for everything I've done.  I've done you a lot of wrong by being selfish and paying attention to my own needs.  I still am hurt by the way you went about telling me these things, but I understand that at any other time, I would not have been hurt by it but defensive or bitter.

Alex, I love you, and you've been my friend for so long.  We've gone through a lot of things, some worse than this, and I want to make things better.  I want to get together with you and I want to know everything that's happened in your life that I've now missed out on.  Please allow me to fix things and make things better between us.  I AM trying hard to be a better person and friend, and I hope you allow me the chance to prove myself.

In response to a forum post

The forum post:  He's not scary because he comes from the Bronx. He's scary because he's one of those dudes that only wears a trenchcoat and gropes people on crowded trains. 

The dude's response:

Was the sort of nasty lie, said so casually, yet so viciously, that makes me wonder what happened in your life to make your Soul become so oriented towards trying to offend others, when there is so
much goodness which you instead could aspire towards. I really pity you for your feeling that you have to play to the lowest instincts the way that you did in your post. You ought to apologize to me
and to everyone who read your crap! You obviously know nothing about me, if you can believe the nonsense that your hate fevered brain dreamed up.
