I feel like if i dont call him ..he wont call me...but every time ive contacted him he's responded and we've hung out..and we have hooked up 3 times since we started talking...but i dont want to talk about anything..i just want to keep the past in the past and see how things go...he hasnt said anything either.but when we hang out the connection seems to still be there..and i love him so much and i just want us to get back together..but i guess im just scared to bring up anything and hear what i dont want to hear..but..we hung out all day without hooking up and he kept saying that he had such a great day..and the next day he came over my house and we hooked up but he seemed a little colder and left ..i dont know what to do..im so confused and he's confusing me..is it ok that im the one that keeps contacting him? cause it seems like he doesnt mind it...what should i do ..'? someone please help me..he wont actually pick up the phone n call but he'll somehow contact me thru email cause he knows i have a blackberry and i get it on the phone..but it will be like coupons to something or fwed emails..but he is so distant ..and when i asked him what he was doing friday and if he wanted to do something..he told me i was better off plannin something else...cause he wasnt sure what he was doing...and i told him dont worry i can plan something else thats not the problem i just thought id ask u..im just hurting so bad..i feel like cryin..i know he has a lot going on for him..he's moving ...he has school..so i dont know what to do..i wish i can turn back time and fix things.. :( i want to talk to him but i feel like he's holding this front and he wont really say what he's feeling..i dont know what to doIs he just being nice or does he want me back? please help me!!?
I think its good to contact the guy every now and then, but you should let him call you first, cuz i always heard its not good for thegirl to contact the guy



Your situation does sound crazily confusing, and i thought what i was going through was confusing!



But if you really like him, just keep hanging out with him, and unless he brings it up first..the only way to know if he likes you is to ask him, you know?



You dont want to keep waiting around, if he isnt going to tell you, you need to find out, then decide whether yall are gonna be together or you need to move on



relationships are always so confusing, and sooo very frustrating



But i honestly think the best thing to do would be to tell him

( i hope that will work out for you, i really do :) )



He seems like hes got something for you, and you definately like him also,



my advice would be to not seem to clingy, let him wonder why you arnt calling for once

set up another day to hang out with him :)



Go somewhere together, since things seemed "colder" at your house



If the plans dont work out, make a plan with another friend, so your mind wont be stuck on him :)



girl, i know how you feel, im going through guy troubles right now also, but alls you can do is keep moving forward and see how things unravel



ask God to lead you in the right direction and pray



God bless :)
I think he wants to fix things but doesn't know how to.Is he just being nice or does he want me back? please help me!!?
no
he wants to be friends
I Can help you, I Just don't want everyone to know this crystal13015@yahoo.com
i understand you in a way cuz something like that happend to me. But listen to this: if you always contact him and he deosnt that means that he not all that interested anymore. I know he gives you signs that he deos but why deosnt he show it. Hes nice to you because he probably likes you somewat since you guys spent so much time together but if hardly contacts you it cuz he deosnt really need you anymore. i know its tough trust me i kno but just let the destiny decide.
my guess would be there might be some feelings there for him but not enough. ur most likley just a booty call to him. if he wanted to be with u like that he wouldnt have blown u off. try to move on.

What is the average rule for tipping out or paying tip share at a restaurant?

I work at a restaurant in Fl, and I was wondering what is the general rule for tipping out or paying tip share at other restaurants? At the establishment where I work we tip out 3% of our GROSS SALES! So what that mean is that even if a check is discounted and it was not our fault we still have to tip out on the original bill. Also our bartenders have to pay tip share every night! I have never heard of this before and was just wondering if it was a common practice? As far as who actually receives the tip share: bussers, hostess, food runner, bar backs(person who makes server drinks on Friday and Saturday), Togo's, expo( the person who plates the food), admen( the person who works in the office), bread runners( person who goes to different Business and takes them rolls and coupons), the person who does inventory at the bar, and our shift managers. To me that means like the SERVERS and BARTENDERS are paying a lot of people's salary!What is the average rule for tipping out or paying tip share at a restaurant?
20% tip for good service, 15% for average service.

~!
As a paying customer, I always tip 15 - 20% of the bill before any discount is applied and before any tax is added. If you'd served me, you wouldn't be out anything.What is the average rule for tipping out or paying tip share at a restaurant?
Ive worked in restaraunts in Fl for years and that is kind of whack! When i served id take 10% of tips and split it between the bussers and the bartender.
10-15% OF THE BILL PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tip shares are based on gross sales during your shift - so that you do not hold back on reporting cash tips.



For example - lets say in an average hour - your sales were $150. If you take a tip averages between 10-22% you could be bringing in as little as $15 and as much as $33 in tips during that hour. That is a lot of leeway - and if they depended on you to report every tip you get (including cash tips) the inclination would be for you to under report so that you keep more for yourself, instead of tip sharing it all. So instead - they require you to tip based on gross sales you made during your shift.



IF your business is largely cash business (people saying 'keep the change' or just leaving bills on the table for your tip) you could easily be underreporting your tips to your employer so that the people who support you as a server in order to get those tips (the kitchen, etc) are being cheated.



There are different ways to calculate tip-share, some places do it on reported tips, usually the way they do tip-sharing is the same way they report tips to the IRS - either by gross sales or reported tips.



And please, get off your high horse - you are not paying a lot of people's salary - the tip was meant not just for you, it was meant to for the entire service. The customer is helping to pay your salary. I cannot believe the greed in your last sentence. Comments like that make the rest of us servers look bad.
I'm not sure this is legal. Check to see if Florida is a "Right to Work" state. Those states allow the owners of the business to deduct a percentage of your salary to offset tips. Other states have found this unconstitutional, as the tip has been found to be a gift from the patron to the server. Check with folks who work at other restaurants in your area and see what they do. You might want to change jobs! I always tip 15 to 20 percent. If the service is terrible, I leave a penny. If you wait on me and do a good job you go home with money in your pocket. I raised two kids alone, on a waitress salary and tips, so I know how important they are. Good luck!

I desperately need help?

This is a very long story.



A boy and I have dated since summer of last year. It went relatively well.. for the first six months. The next six months was completely downhill of constant almost breakups until the inevitable breakup at one year. It's now 4.5 months later.



(Hint: Note the past tense) He used to be very kind and charming. I wanted to stay with him desperately since he was all I ever wanted. It's only now I think I might be suffering from verbal abuse and such.



I'm trying to stay as friends with him. He complains to me how I pry into his life so much, yet I've been giving him plenty of space for a while. I talk to him less, text him less, try not to bug him so much because that's what HE wants. All the time, I do pretty much whatever HE wants. I got into a college and he asked me to check the status for him. I didn't know his stats so I went onto his email (we know each other's passwords) just to look for the numbers to check his status. I told him there's no update and later he gets so angry at me for checking for him and going onto his email. I only tried to do what he asked me to do...



I only notice now how angry he gets when I say no. Today, he wanted me to go to Black Friday early tomorrow morning, but I'm working at 10 AM and I was throwing up and sick today, so I wanted to sleep. He called me gay and he's like you've become so lame. That's just form saying no to going with him. I understand if he doesn't want to date and stuff anymore, but I don't see how he has the right to insult me and call me names. Next thing I know, he's angry at me. Very angry, as usual. Anger moves to ignorance. He ignores a word I say. He says I complain too much and I didn't realize I was even complaining whatsoever (this was through texts, I looked back and didn't see that I was complaining). I still said sorry, I'll stop complaining. Then he's like wow, shut up. Next thing I know, he stops talking to me. I text him saying I don't understand what I've done wrong, blah blah, won't you just listen to me? He says if you text me one more time, I'll block your number (this is after he blocked my screenname). Aside from the blocking, the yelling and degrading is very common. I usually end up in tears but this happens all the time. He never listens to anything I have to say.

Another incident where I said no. He wanted me to skip school yesterday but I said no. Long story short, he was very angry about that.



To any other person on this planet, he's the ideal guy and absolutely wonderful. To everyone.. except me now. Why does he do this to me? He kills my self esteem, gets so angry at me now, very stubborn and irrational, hypocritical in a sense (long story short, I'd buy clothes, return them so I can use coupons on them, yet now he's switching between like 3 cell phones, returning and stuff because they cost less), doesn't listen to me, controlling, makes me feel worthless, etc. And stupid me thinks I can buy him stuff (I try buying him stuff to please him) and in all honesty, I want to help him. I try to please him and make him happy, but making evidently in the end, he's just pissed at me. He says I always annoy him now but I don't even know what I do to annoy him. I've been trying to stay strong but I think it's all beginning to hurt me psychologically and emotionally. What made him like this? Why does he treat me the way he does? Why can't I just be friends with him without him acting towards me in this manner?



He always tells me lets just be friends, but I don't see him EVER treating a friend this way. I want to help him and save him from himself. I just don't understand anymore...



*Note: We are both 17 %26amp; seniors. We have known each other for a year and a half and he became my best friend, and knows everything about me. I stopped talking to a lot of my friends and he was the only one I really spoke to, so clearly I have no one to talk to about this entire situation. He has never physically abused me. If abused, only verbally %26amp; emotionally*I desperately need help?
I am glad you have noticed that you have been emotionally abuse and this is exactly the way a guy acts when he emotionally abuses you. you tend to want to make it better and he blames you and you keep trying to make it better. Welcome to the real world of abusers. the best advice to give you is to stop seeing him and stop texting him and start seeing you old friends. do things that you like to do. but do not call him. if you distance yourself from him, you will have more will power to refuse him. He is not a nice person. Why do you want a person like him that makes you feel awful. don't you think you deserve better? don't you think you deserve a nice boyfriend who is nice and wants to do things you like to do and wants to please you. Life can be beautiful, if you allow it to happen. forget him and get along with your life. When you go to College, you will meet new friends and have new experiences.. It will fun. you'll see....
I agree with the answers given so far, listen to them!I desperately need help?
You guys are no longer in a relationship. You shouldn't be putting up with this stuff anymore. You may want to end the friendship as well. The both of you seem to have old issues (about the relationship) that haven't been resolved. You two are both still trying to hold on to each other, i.e. not letting go of the past.

Is Good Code Impossible

This blog seems to have sparked a little bit of backlash towards me as if I were an irresponsible developer making things worse on my peers. I assure you, it’s not true. Sometimes, in business, we have to be willing to accept a little more work than we’d like or a little more hardship in general to gain something back. What was gained from the client was (A) good notoriety for having worked with them and (B) the promise of a longer and more lucrative Phase II. In all things, there is give and take. We gave as much as took.



–



When you hit your teenage years you decide you want to be a software developer. During your high school years, you learn how to write software using object-oriented principles. When you graduate to college, you apply all the principles you’ve learned to areas such as Artificial Intelligence or 3D graphics.



And when you hit the professional circuit, you begin your never-ending quest to write commercial-quality, maintainable, and “perfect” code that will stand the test of time.



Commercial-quality. Huh. That’s pretty funny.



I consider myself lucky, I *love* design patterns. I like studying the theory of coding perfection. I have no problem starting up an hour-long discussion about why my XP partner’s choice of inheritance hierarchy is wrong — that HAS-A is better than IS-A in so many cases. But something has been bugging me lately and I am wondering something…



…is good code impossible in modern software development?



The Typical Project Proposal

As a full-time contract developer (and part-time), I spend my days (and nights) developing mobile applications for clients. And what I’ve learned over the many years I’ve been doing this is that the demands of client work preclude me from writing the real quality apps that I’d like to be.



Before I begin, let me just say it’s not for a lack of trying. I love the topic of clean code. I don’t know anyone who pursues that perfect software design like I do. It’s the execution that I find more elusive, and not for the reason you think.



Here, let me tell you a story.



Towards the end of last year, a pretty well-known company put out an RFP (Request for Proposol) to have an app built for them. They’re a huge retailer, but for the sake of anonymity let’s call them Gorilla Mart. They say they need to create an iPhone presence and would like an app produced for them by Black Friday. The catch? It’s already November 1st. That leaves just under 4 weeks to create the app. Oh, and at this time Apple is still taking two weeks to approve apps. (Ah, the good old days.) So, wait, this app has to be written in…TWO WEEKS?!?!



Yes. We have two weeks to write this app. And unfortunately, we’ve won the bid. (In business, client importance matters.) This is going to happen.



“But it’s OK,” Gorilla Mart Executive #1 says. “The app is simple. It just needs to show users a few products from our catalog and let them search for store locations. We already do it on our site. We’ll give you the graphics, too. You can probably — what’s the word — yeah, hardcode it!”

Gorilla Mart Executive #2 chimes in, “And we just need a couple coupons the user can show at the cash register. The app will be a throwaway. Let’s get it out the door, and then for Phase II we’ll do something bigger and better from scratch.”



And then it’s happening. Despite years of constant reminders that every feature a client asks for will always be more complex to write than it is to explain, you go for it. You really believe that this time, it really can be done in two weeks. Yes. Yes! We can do this! This time it’s different! It’s just a few graphics and a service call to get a store location. XML! No sweat. We can do this…I’m pumped! Let’s go!!!



It takes just a day for you and reality to once again make acquaintance.



Me: So, can you give me the info I need to call your store location Web Service?



The Client: What’s a Web Service?



Me: ………..





And that’s exactly how it happened. Their store location service, found right where it’s supposed to be on the top-right corner of their website, is not a web service. It’s generated by Java code. Ixnay with the API-ay. And to boot, it’s hosted by a Gorilla Mart strategic partner.



Enter the nefarious “3rd party.”



In client terms, a “3rd party” is akin to Angelina Jolie. Despite the promise that you’ll be able to have an enlightening conversation over a nice meal and hopefully hook up afterwards…sorry, it ain’t happenin’. You’re just gonna have to fantasize about it while you take care of business yourself.



In my case, the only thing I was able to wrestle out of Gorilla Mart was a current snapshot of their current store listings in an Excel file. I had to write the store location search code from scratch.



The double-whammy came later that day — they wanted the product and coupon data online so it could be changed weekly. There goes hardcoding! Two weeks to write an iPhone app have now beDid those involved understand whether the changes they were making to Collins software were good or bad ?

Should I Leave my Husband?

Ok, he worked 14 hrs one day 13 the next. Hated the job was only there two days. Had to get up 4 in the morning. I took him since he does not have a license. I have tried to be supportive. He has had some troubles with ex's , drinking, etc. Ok, felt bad work was hard. I put in the resume in temp. help. They called Thur. I said he will call you back, ok, he called back, they said can you work thur-fri. next week. I said I will send in the paperwork for you, seeing you hate this job. He had to work Monday and Tuesday only. Then he would be off Wes. Thursday Friday would be another job.I will take you to your new job. We are so far behind in our bills. (no I don't work, I can't ) I clip coupons, go to the food pantry, get help as much as I can for the family. Monday comes, R u getting up. No he saids, I hate the job, too hot....blah blah blah. I said it's for only two more days and we will get a couple dollars to pay the rent. No he won't get up . He missed the day and he will only get about $40 for his efforts of last week. Tried of being his mother.... He is always saying I don't stand by him but all I have done for a year and a half if to stand by him. He has gone to rehab, jail, fines, smashed my windshield, etc.Should I Leave my Husband?
I don't know if this helps but do you love him or don't you, that's the question
Your husband is just plain lazy...I doubt he would be happy working any job and he's not going to change.



You're going to have to decide whether you can live like this or no...If it was me, I would have already packed my bags and left.



Good luck in your decision!Should I Leave my Husband?
Unless you have a medical reason you should be working! Clipping coupons is not an occupation. How do you expect him to want to work when you dont?
No, you should not. You swore to stick with him, no matter what, right? YOu would be really low to leave him just because he's fallen on hard times. Bloody fairweather wives....
If you are to the point of asking, the answer is yes, you should leave.
Yes leave him. He sounds like an irresponsible 5 year old.
It's so easy to focus on other people's problems, than fix our own.

He's doing a great job helping you.

I'll bet you don't have time for hardly anything.

It's called co-dependent.

You need a 12 step program.

Get your life together- and only then, add on someone. Someone who is whole. Who can add to your life.

Do you want to look back on your life in 20 years and see only more of the same?
Since I'm not married I wont tell you to leave or stay, but I do know that you don't quit one job until you have another. Hey Adam and Eve made it that way honey, he's going to have to till the field for the rest of his life. God didn't say it wouldn't be hot out there. He needs to suck it up and be a man. The options out there are go to school so you wont have to do manual labor or do manual labor because you didn't go to school. Sounds like he choose the manual labor route. Any job he gets will never be a comfortable situation.
In my opinion, he sounds like he is immature and actually kind of worthless. You aren't his mother, so i'd stop being responsible for him. He needs to be responsible for himself. I wouldn't leave him just yet, you sound angry and leaving when your angry is not the best thing to do. I'd tell him you need to get your act together. Remember that when you married him, you vowed to stay with him for better or for worse. These are just bad times. He needs to figure some things out. Maybe try some counseling. It sounds like he's got some work to do. You need to decide if you want to stick by him and accept him for who he is, or if you want to move forward and let him fend for himself. Good luck.
If this has been going on for awhile, yes I would separate, but I would not divorce. I would tell him he had to go, and if he would not leave, I would. Maybe if on his own with no one to "mother" him he will get it together. Its funny how quickly some people get motivated when their stomachs start growling. The Bible states that if a man is not taking care of his family that the wife can separate from him, but not divorce. That is what I planned on doing if my husband continued what he was doing. Once I stopped covering his irresponsibilities and let him be hungry a few days, he wised up and realized I was serious about all the things I said.
You should always do what makes you happy to begin with. Besides the financially worries think about the relationship you two have and see if that helps with your decision.

From what I read it doesnt sound like you two are living happily every after and that you are the one that he wants to work and provide for. Perhaps you would be better on your own or finding someone who treats you like every woman should be treated.

Just an opinion though.

Hope it all works out.

I need some new budget and kid-friendly meal ideas? Lunch and Dinner!?

I am stuck in one of those lull's where I only have a handful of things I have been making for the last few months.



Chicken and Dumplings

Homemade Marinara over Linquinie

Meatloaf with Peas and Potatos

Homemade Chicken noodle Soup

Homemade Sauce %26amp; Home made Gnocci's (usually followed by a baked Ziti or Lazana later in the week with left over sauce)

Homemade Chili

Pork Chops

Beef Tips %26amp; Gravy over Egg Noodles



I need some new ideas! I try to split up beef, pasta, chicken and pork evenly throughout the week but pasta has been winning latley because its quick and I have been so busy.



I need some easy dinners that are cheap, easy and the kids would like too. Any lunch ideas would be great too....kids are bored with PB%26amp;J, homemade lunchables, GC and T soup, leftovers, chicken nuggests and Macoroni and Ch.



I usually go through my coupons and match it to the stores sales, but that doesnt come out till tomarrow and we are shopping friday.I need some new budget and kid-friendly meal ideas? Lunch and Dinner!?
My kids love pasta, such as spaghetti, chicken fettuccine alfredo, and chicken parmesan... They also love Mexican foods, such as burritos, quesadillas, fajitas, nachos, and chimichangas... All are fairly inexpensive, and you can make enough for leftovers!
Here's an easy recipe everyone likes:

Hawiian Delight

you need a pack of ham steaks (about 3 bucks for 7 at walmart)

a can of pineapple rings, drained and cut,

1 tbsp. mustard

2/3 cup orange juice.

Heat the ham steaks in a skillet until warm and browned. Remove steaks and add orange juice and mustard, bringing to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Add pineapple chunks. Cook for 5 minutes. coat ham in sauce and remove.

serve with steamed rice to sop up the sauce.I need some new budget and kid-friendly meal ideas? Lunch and Dinner!?
Simple fish pie.

Lightly cook some fish, white, smoked, prawns etc in milk.

Use the milk to make a basic white sauce, add fish, then transfer to an overproof dish. Top with mashed potato and place in oven for approx 20mins until potato browns.

You can add veg if you want, sweetcorn, chopped onion, brocolli, peppers work well.
tuna noodle cassarole

turkey tettrizini

cheese quesidillas

homemade pizzas

chicken parmesan

chicken pot pie

breakfast for dinner (pancakes, waffles, french toast...)
Personally i wish to come over to your house and eat. I know that is not the question, but you made me want some homemade food. Yours sounds great
yummy!

english muffin pizza
Home made mini pizzas are pretty easy. Pop open a can of biscuits, flatten them on a cookie sheet, and let the kids top with sauce (the marinara should work), cheese, the left over meat of their choice, and any other reasonable little things they want. It is my 6 year old's favorite way to use up the last bits of left over meat dishes! And it's fun because everybody can customize it to their taste.



We also like to stuff meat, veggies, and/or cheese into biscuits for a "hot pocket" type dish, or add them to cornbread mix.



I haven't met a kid yet who doesn't like bean burritos the way I make them. (although I have met a few that don't like the way fast food places and freezer sections make them) I run a whole can of ranch style beans through the food processor. Warm it up, spoon into warm tortillas, and top with shredded cheese. ... It's a little on the runny side, but tastes pretty good.



Those and turkey burgers are probably the only things I make on a regular basis that you haven't mentioned. ... Tonight my daughter has requested sloppy joes.



Everything I have listed except maybe the sloppy joes feeds our family of 3 (which includes a typical bottomless pit man) for less than $5.
Well I happen to know that my hubby and our daughter love hamburger and tuna helper. It is one of their favorite things too eat. My favorite is kinda something I came across. there are these things called banquet homestyle bakes. I came across them at dollar general and walmart. It costs 3 bucks and it comes with the meat and everything you need to make it. it makes a decent amount. The one I made first though I can easily make without buying the box. All it needs is like a casserole pan ect....I put a layer of mashed potatoes across the bottom(instant fine) then I mix up some gravy can be any kind. Then in the gravy I mix in some meat just out of a can like chicken beef ect. then you poor that over the potatoes. Then finally I mix up some bisquits and they go on top of it. its like a different play on a pot pie. Then all that has to do is it needs to go in the oven. I love it they are all good meals. Hope this helps.
Veggies: brocolli / cauliflower with grated or shredded cheese.



Mac and cheese with peas in it.



My little ones also love steak, hot dogs, and shrimp. I use cheap cuts of steak $2.99 a pound, as long as you slice it really thin it's great. For the hiot dogs, I spend some money.. Kosher.. has to be Kosher.. I buy Hebrew natinals in the Family Pack.. it's like 50 hot dogs or something like that, but if you keep them in ziplock they stay fresh for weeks in the fridge.
i know one really good food i like.



i use a box of elbow noodles

some whole or diced tomatoes with the juice.

some corn without the juice

onions

hamburger meat





cook the noodles

cook the hamburger and the onions

put the tomatoes and with juice and corn without into a big bowl

wait till the noodles and hamburger is done and put it in the bowl with the corn and tomatoes



i love the tomatoes. so i usually put like 2 medium cans of that in mine



its call goulash







you can also try shepherd pie.. that is really good. dunno how to make it but its good.

How can I make my job application flawless?

I started going to this pizza place down by my college. It's hiring because it's running low on employees. They make pretty good homemade pizza and they're really nice. They love me there. In fact, they always give me exceptions on my coupons. If it says MUST BE USED on TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 2010, they let me use it on wednesday, thursday, or even friday. They're great. Since they're hiring, I wanna apply. I can fill out the application easily but...Should I include a resume? Should I type the application or write it? Tips for getting this job?How can I make my job application flawless?
I would not use a resume that is associated with getting a more professional job like legal secretary. I would type the application so they can read what you wrote; my handwriting is horrible. Tips for getting the job is to say you can do what they are looking for. I can work any hours, and am a quick learner.How can I make my job application flawless?
Most pizza places do have printed applications for you to fill out. You will want to fill out one of those regardless; however, you can attach your resume to a job application as well. Although not required for a part-time job at a pizza shop, attaching a resume does show professionalism.



When filling out your standard job application, you'll want to hand write it. When doing a resume, printing a resume from the computer is always a good idea.
