If given the chance to pull rank on a useless workmate would you do it?

I have to work on site with a bloke who%26#039;s a total waster, 90 percent of the jobs he talks about doing are just hot air. He cant read a tape make mortar or concrete do make simple banksman signals(thats signals to the plant machine operatives). He cant use a trowel or lay a bed of mortar, he cant do any of the simple things a general site labourer should be able to do and i%26#039;m sick of having to fix his balls ups. I%26#039;m skilled labour/chargehand fully accredited and passed by the construction board. I can bricklay weld do joinery steel erect fabricate and do mechanics advanced first aid cert and fire safety cert included and a few NVQ and city and guilds thrown in for good measure as well. Because hes full time for the firm i%26#039;m still a temp he thinks he can tell me what to do, i just ignore him but hes starting to piss me off all i have to do is flash my CSR card to show him up for the wanker that he is. Given the chance in my shoes would you do it?

If given the chance to pull rank on a useless workmate would you do it?
Absolutely....or it%26#039;ll get worse and an accident could happen because of his/her uselessness. Don%26#039;t feel guilty...just do it.!
Reply:This ain%26#039;t just a question of being pissed off. There%26#039;s safety issues. Sometime you are gonna miss one of his mistakes and someone%26#039;s gonna get hurt.





Definitely pull rank on him. He needs outta there before a accident happens.
Reply:Yes put him where he belongs before something serious happens, because if it does you will be the one who will get the blame, not him.
Reply:if he has 13 kids and no wife and he already gets bad pay...no


otherwise...yes


(i would talk to him and give him a chance first)
Reply:put that **** in the dirt and absolutely do it!

Tips for keeping jeans folded up and under at the bottom?

I got a new pair and wanted to wear them tonight so I don%26#039;t have time to get my jeans hemmed properly.





I don%26#039;t want to fold them up on the outside because I don%26#039;t want a cuff on them with my shoes (it%26#039;ll look weird) and whenever i fold them into the inside they keep coming down.





So besides using some safety pins anyone have tips/tricks for keeping your pants folded up at the bottom of the legs without actually getting them hemmed? Wll choose an answer, thanks!

Tips for keeping jeans folded up and under at the bottom?
This is going to sound funny, but you can actually staple them, I%26#039;ve done it before, if you do it in the right spot you won%26#039;t see the staple. Or you can just pick a different pair of shoes? I always fold my jeans at the bottom, but they%26#039;re skinny jeans and i usually wear flats or converse with them...
Reply:You can go to wal-mart or a store like that and get some hemming tape. It%26#039;s easy to take down so you can get them hemmed properly later on, but for now it%26#039;ll work. All you do is lay the strip of hemming tape along where you want it hemmed, then iron it. If you%26#039;re afraid that%26#039;ll stay too permanently, just get some double-sided tape and run it along the bottom and tape to the inside of the pants. Both are quick and easy solutions.
Reply:there%26#039;s adhesive hem tape you can even find at Walmart that will work great and it%26#039;s quick too (I sometimes use this since practically every pants/jeans I have are long)





here%26#039;s a link you might like also http://www.associatedcontent.com/article...
Reply:im 5%26#039;0 so i understand your dillema...what i do is fold the jeans (on the inside) where I want them to stay, then I iron them (the folds) like 15 times....starch will help...they stay up when i do tht....
Reply:I use a bobby pin on the inside, or sometimes a safety pin. Sometimes if you wash your pants and let them %26quot;hang dry%26quot; they will stay by themselves.
Reply:try to fold them under,then iron them at the bottom so it keeps the crease tight
Reply:I turn my jeans inside out and fold them. Then, iron the hem. Use starch if you have any, this helps it stay put.

For people who already have had a baby :] Do I have everything I need?

My baby boy is due in May, here%26#039;s a list of what I have so far, am I missing anything?





.Clothes (onsies, sleepers, socks, mittens, sweaters, pants, hats, soft shoes)


.Blankets, bath towels, wash cloths


.Baby products (oil, wipes, lotion, soap, powder, cream, q tips etc.)


.Carseat


.Stroller


.Diaper bag (already packed :])


.Crib (sheets, mobile, positioner...)


.Changing table


.Bouncer


.Swing


.Jumper


.Car mirror and shades


.Baby safety set (nail clippers, thermometer, baby medicine...)


.Baby book and photo albums


.Bassinet


.Baby bathtub


.Toy chest (full of toys)


.Bottles and breast pump








Things I haven%26#039;t bought yet and are pretty sure I am going to are:


.High chair


.Gates for his playroom


.Pillow for breastfeeding


.Contents for overnight bag for the hospital, I have the bag with a few things in it...but not everything yet.





Am I forgetting anything? I thinks that%26#039;s everything..





Thanks :]

For people who already have had a baby :] Do I have everything I need?
I agree with everything Arlene G said. It sounds like you have pretty much everything covered for the baby so don%26#039;t forget about yourself. This is coming from experience because no one even told me to take any of those things for myself. My poor husband was always having to run to the store for extra things.





I would suggest bringing something to keep all the paperwork in. You will have lots and it%26#039;s so easy to just put them in one place so you aren%26#039;t worried about losing or forgetting them.





Also have some healthy snacks for when the baby comes home because I know I wasn%26#039;t able to eat for more than 5 mins at a time :). Escpecially because she had colic.





You might want to get some baby gas drops just in case.





And this is a personal choice but I now have a wrap for the baby and wish I had looked into them sooner so maybe you could check out those. But other than that it seems as if you are all set. Congratulations!
Reply:Maybe a baby monitor?? Even if baby is going to be sleeping in your room for awhile, it%26#039;s nice to have when they%26#039;re napping during the day, so you can get other things done around and house, and still be able to hear when he%26#039;s up....but your list so far is pretty complete, kudos!! And congratulations!!





Only other things I can think of would be maybe a baby sling or carrier?? The baby sling was a life saver with my last baby....
Reply:Sounds like you have everything you might possibly need. Honestly, I didn%26#039;t use everything I had and I think I had everything you do.
Reply:Get a sling or wrap (or both!). You won%26#039;t regret it!
Reply:You%26#039;ve got the baby better than covered. But you forget yourself.


Most people do. Which is why I always buy gifts for the new mother instead of baby clothes.





The breast feeding pillow is good but I%26#039;d recommend a body pillow, too. Even if you have the easiest delivery in the world you are going to be sore. A body pillow is a great thing for supporting all those achey bits and using between your knees.





You also need a donut pillow. And Tucks medicated pads. The achiest bit is going to be your very thing and it is going to love you if you treat it tenderly by sitting on that donut pillow and putting a nice cool Tucks pad in your undies to take the sting out.





I don%26#039;t know what you have in your bag but you must have pajamas. Not some fiddley nursing gown with bows and ribbons...but a pair of comfortable sweat pant type pants (better to keep those humongous pads for the after bleeding in place) and a top that buttons down the front for easy access.





If you are a bath type of person then get yourself lots of smelly girly bath salt type things, too.





And snack food. Nursing is going to make you hungry. And hospital food sucks as much as it ever did. Stock up or make a list for your husband for when the event happens.





Ice packs would be a good thing to have on hand, too. Your breasts are going to swell up like balloons when your milk comes in and for some people this is not a pleasant experience. For some people (like me all 5 times) is hurts like and SOB and feels like I%26#039;m carting around a couple of bruised boulders. You could get lucky there though.





That%26#039;s about all I can think of. Good luck.
Reply:bottle sterilizer (microwave steamer) comes in handy unless you want to boil them all the time.... , you do have covers for the changing table pad, right? Boppy makes a great one sold at babiesrus.com with a quick clean middle so you dont have to wash the whole thing when it gets dirty.....
Reply:Definitely get a cool mist humidifier. It%26#039;s the best thing for baby%26#039;s little stuffy noses. Also, breast pads, lanolin, sterilizer (Medela makes a great sterilizing bag that can be used like 10 times... You fill it with 2 oz. of water and your pump parts or bottles, stick it in the microwave, and ta-da - sterilized!), Medela quick clean wipes for pumping anywhere where you can%26#039;t immediately wash the pump parts, a ring sling or wrap or mei tai, and don%26#039;t forget your boppy! That was my lifesaver when in the hospital. You%26#039;re so sore that bending in different ways can really hurt and the Boppy really helps.
Reply:I would say you have more than enough, lol. Only things I can think of is lots of diapers and wipes! You may also want to get a cool mist vaporizer or humidifier, helps the baby breath easier. Maybe you should also check into some baby medicines. At Walmart, they have a little kit that has things such as infant tylenol, mylicon drops and diaper rash ointment. All of that stuff comes in very, very handy. Good luck with the baby!!
Reply:Wait until your baby arrives to get anything else. Your baby will have his/her own likes and dislikes and you don%26#039;t want to be left with a lot of things you won%26#039;t use. For example, some babies only like one brand of bottles/teats and others don%26#039;t like a swing or bouncer. There is an endless amount of baby merchandise available and you don%26#039;t need to buy all of it!
Reply:breast pads so you don%26#039;t leak through your clothes


baby hair brush
Reply:Here are a few things I wish I would have had or known about PRIOR to bringing my little girl home:





A SwaddleMe by Kiddopotomus – they make it so wonderfully easy to swaddle your little one (which they LOVE) and are only $10 at Babies R Us


Pack of cloth diapers or cheap receiving blankets to use as burping cloths


Little velcro booties – socks never stay on!


Gerber makes little newborn hats in a 3-pack which my daughter wears EVERY day (found them at K-Mart)


Depending on where you live, a cover for the carseat to protect baby from the wind or cold is great. Kiddopotomus also makes one that I ordered from Target


Boppy pillow for breastfeeding is great





Hope that helps! From one new mom to another!





BTW - You definitely won%26#039;t need a high chair yet. You%26#039;re not feeding solids until about 5 months, and a newborn can%26#039;t sit in those anyways. You have time to get that.

With all the Leaders in Cuba that Hate America. Why not drop a bomb take them all out at one time.?

We missed a chance last week to take out the heads of the Talabon when they all got to gether.


It should not matter the reason they met if we know where they are we should do what we can to take them out.





And the same with any others that say they promote sueicide bombers and tell other Muslums to kill Americans in the name of their God.


We say we are doing everything we can on terrisom but are we?


Why Should we allow the President of Iran into America the land he Hates?


Why are the very people we faught ( Head of Talabon ) allowed now to go to Collage here in our Country taking the seat away from an American Citizen ?


When will we Close the Borders?


When will we Secure the all Ports


When we secure the Airports So what you have to open you lugage or take off your shoes better then haveing them blown off.


We really need to stat to take the safty of America serous.


They say there are over 20 million illegal immigrants here I Ask Why?


We need to put America safety First !

With all the Leaders in Cuba that Hate America. Why not drop a bomb take them all out at one time.?
Because then who would our government have us be afraid of?


Without an enemy to scare and manipulate the american public, the businessmen that rule would not be able to forward the business agenda.
Reply:are you asking us to just kill people without talking? are you saying to screw diplomacy, just blow the hell out of everyone? the war on terrorism is unwinable, because terrorism doesnt just come from the middle east. think about the oklahoma city bombings, that wasnt an airplane, an illegal immigrant or anything like that. no, it was a homegrown american, he was a war hero even. after that bombing did we then go attack our army? no. the reason we are focusing on the middle east is because its an easy target for bush, he can build hatred easily, it is all political, so stop asking stipid questions, americas safety is impossible
Reply:If you want to kill everybody who dislikes America you will have to kill most of the 6 billion people in the world. Because most people abroad have nothing but scorn for the American politicians who control America.
Reply:think!!!! its people like you that causes all the hate in this world . i don,t think christ was as white as america has been painting him.think about it if you can.
Reply:George W., I am sorry but I think you are getting paranoid and OTT !
Reply:well....genius.........those leaders represent millions of people, and murdering their leaders probably wont persuade them into liking the US
