She is not 'my ' friend, but is my aunt's friends' daughter. She pays me less than I'd typically get for when i have all her children together (5 kids) but I haven't said anything b/c I wanted to give a 'deal' of sorts, but I am shy in general, and people have said to put your 'business' hat on when it comes to that. She wants me to work only 2 hours soon, but I typically need 3 or 4 for minimum for a shift, as I live a half hour away. How do I ask her for more hours w/out seeming pushy? (for a minimum 3 or 4 hour) less

I work just as hard, if not more so... certainly there's more stress and responsibility.... it's a more respected job... and I am as wise as a wise thing... so something's keeping me poor I think :P Maybe some secret government agency is stealing all my money and hypnotising me so I don't notice.. maybe I am being hypnotised and made to work twice as long and I don't know it...

Does her background include working for others or has she only ever worked for her father?

(His name is Turnbull but he's such a complete nonentity that the US got his name wrong.)Prime Minister Turnbull is about to meet with President Trump - and carrying a golf ball caddy as a gift for the POTUS.If Trump accepts, that's an emolument BY DEFINITION - and grounds for impeachment (as if any more were needed).

I wonder how many Russian "useful idiots" America has employed? Do all countries pay "useful idiots" to betray their countries? Even Switzerland? At least useful idiots earn their own way and aren't on the dole through welfare because they're lazy bums. They probably work very hard at whatever it is they do for foreign countries. less

For example he was loaded and yet finagled a scholarship for his kid by filling out forms understating his income substantially. A lousy example for his children, one of whom despised him! If you cheat why would you brag about it to your kids? Would you? What kind of role model is THAT?

I do not know its origin, but I swear by it because my mother did it with me and I carried on the tradition with both of my sons. To this day, tucked away somewhere in little plastic bags are tufts of their rich dark hair. Unfortunately, I do not know if it was/is also practiced with girls. I only have sons. ~

I am a people pleaser to a fault and while I have many opinions and views, I often just agree with others to make 'peace', to not argue or to not seem domineering. I don't even look people in the eye a lot b/c I feel so much less.. and this hinders me with guys/dating :( I feel I have no 'self' , no right to stand my ground or to even voice what makes 'me' happy (sometimes I don't even know what makes me happy or that I can obtain real love or happiness). If anyone else has ever felt their self diminish, how did you begin to find it again or build it?? less
