Hall Of Shame.US - group at My World Of Work

When I was merely being assertive and requesting that the company "compromise on it's policy" the representative simply said, that they can't do this for everyone. Later to someone else they spoken, they even had the nerve to "call me rude" when I was politely yet assertively, requesting to speak to a supervisor. "

If you do it, do it 100% dont doubt,
if you love, love 100% as a first time,
live in today, live in now this moment, enjoy
live is simple, if we not complicate it...
stop, stopping yourself...
what if you will surprise yourself and win"

Any way the housewife explained to him that somehow they were “getting ready to rise” but for some reason that they did not. They had somehow become baked in the squat."
