I have worked in a waitressing job for almost a year and a half. My boss just hired three new girls, and they routinely get three or four shifts a week, while I will only get one. I expressed my frustration to my boss over this. Could she fire me?

I have never made a coat/jacket before, but I found a pattern designed for “advanced beginners” and I want to try. The pattern is for a denim jacket, but I plan on making it out of corduroy. I would like to line the jacket with flannel (I’m aware this isn’t generally a recommended lining fabric) When sewing linings in the past, I’ve always found it easiest to add seam allowance, cut the pieces of the lining and the outer fabric, and then sew them together to make one piece before constructing the rest of the garment. I’ve never seen anyone do a coat like this. Is there any reason I can’t?

I’ve never sewed a coat or jacket before… I found a pattern meant for “advanced beginners” in sewing. The pattern is for a denim jacket but I want to make one out of corduroy, witch a flannel lining. I’m aware flannel isn’t a recommended coat lining bc of its weight and smoothness, and that’s fine. Whenever I’ve sewed linings before, I’ve added seam allowance to the pattern pieces and sewed the lining to each piece individually, and then constructed the garment using those pieces. I’ve never seen anyone make a coat like this. Is there any reason I can’t?

When I was younger, I never really had a routine for washing my face, and so I often just skipped it. I never got acne or pimples of any sort, and has perfect skin. This summer, when a friend found out I never washed my face, she freaked out over it and made me start a set routine. Ever since, I have started to break out. I tried many different cleansers and nothing has worked. I have stopped doing so since, and the break outs have mostly subsided. I ve always moisturized, but have even done that less since I moved from dry Wisconsin to humid New Zealand. My normal routine is to take my makeup off and clean my face with warm water in the shower, no soap. Is there any reasons I could possibly be breaking out because I was washing my face?I ve been left with scars I am not happy with, and I want to treat my skin right.

I m trying to get the Instagram username @alaina. Whenever I try to change my username, it says the name is taken. However, when I click @alaina in a comment, try to go to instagram.com/alaina, or search for it, no account comes up. Could the account just be deactivated, but not deleted? it s really annoying. Thanks !

I'm white, but because of how white I am. If it isn't racism, what is it? It's been going on for far to long and I want to address it with them, but by a more proper name then 'racism'.

I m going to New Zealand on exchange. Is it possible that I will encounter bidets?

I'm considering studying in Australia for five months. I'm reading about what to pack and what not to - I've read some people saying not to pack any toiletries, because you can just buy them there and throw them out before you leave. Others say to pack them, because they're ore expensive over there. Does anyone know, ir have any opinion on this?

I'm aware of the fact that minors are generally not allowed to enter contracts (I live in Wisconsin). I take portraits etc. of friends, family, etc. I often find that when I'm not paid, friends will post pictures I've taken of them on social media and not give my sufficient credit for my work. Although this isn't a big deal to most teens, I get paid for a lot of my work and except to be credited. As I am also underage, I can't obtain copyrights on my images. So my question, specifically, is would I be allowed to draw up a 'contract' of sorts making my models liable to give my credit in my photos? Nothing super in depth, I honestly just want to make sure I get credit. I feel that having models sign something would make them more likely to credit me. I would only take actual legal action under very, very extreme circumstances (Honestly, i can't even think of a situation this would happen). Thanks! I know it's a lot.

Sorry this might be long, but stick with me.

I get extreme headaches & migraines. In class today, I asked my teacher if I could leave to take my medicine in the office. She said no, that I should have done so before class or would have to wait until after class. I, however, thought this was rather unfair. (perhaps a better word would be inappropriate?) I had not had a headache before, and I'm supposed to take the medicine at first sign (plus it's hard to concentrate). So basically, I'm asking if you think I, as a student, should have the right to leave class and take my medicine.

Another note: This is a medical issue I'm being treated for at the Children's Hospital Pain and Headache Clinic. This happened in my Latin Class and has happened before in this class and others as well.

Thanks for your Opinion!!

I m writing the thesis for an editorial essay in World Studies, and I want it to flow really well. Is there a name for cars that run on gas or petrol?

I m coming up with a lot of a hundred things, and I want to photograph them all within a year. Any Ideas of what I should put on my list???

I have a Satin Finish Speck Case (in the color Turquoise) on my Macbook). It has a lot of Fingerprints and other grease and whatnot on it. What's a good way to go about cleaning it. 10 points to First (best) answer!

I'm writing a story where I compare the characters perfection to a china doll, and when she becomes 'not-so-perfect', I want to include the line "Well eventually porcelain (the doll's skin) _______, and glass (the doll's eyes) shatters. What should I say for porcelain. Kind of like how iron rusts, and silver tarnishes. Should I say 'smudges'?

My skin often appears blotchy red and white. It's mostly on my arms & legs. It makes my self conscious and it's been happening for a few years. It's not a rash, any ideas???

I LOVE cupcakes, and am working on a carrot cupcake. I recently came up with the idea of doing a pumpkin spice cream cheese to go with. How does it sound? Any other dressed-up cream cheese frosting ideas???

I have these really weird dreams that make no sense at the time... but then they occur in real life. I ve never really believed anything paranormal or whatever. Any ideas???

I have a student council speech tomorrow, and I need to do an entrance to the podium. This usually includes a song, and several people. Any song ideas? Or any other entrance ideas? I'm running for secretary.

I have an assignment in class, to get several impressions from people on an assigned topic. My topic is Wisconsin, the state I live in. We are allowed to get the impressions anyway we can. So, I'm wondering if you could tell me what you think Wisconsin is like. It can be the people, the land or the state itself. Also I need to know whether or not you've been hear before.

Teachers ex: 'The people in Wisconsin are to obsessed with Cheese'

My sister has a sty, causing her eye to become red an puffy. We're taking her into a walk in clinic today because her eye is also very bloodshot and it could be infected.

Last night me eye started itching slightly. It doesn't hurt, it's just really annoying. In trying not to touch it. I know my sister's eye is very contagious. Could I have an infection or a sty?
