I have tried to find the answer elsewhere and I do not know the proper protocol for trying to get beer or wine companies to provide free products to a restaurant business. I have done some research and various websites they have said there is no need to buy certain things for your business. For instance, beer coasters, and any type of refrigeration including a keg fridge.

I want companies to provide my restaurant with any items that will advertise their product that are beneficial to any restaurant business. I want to know how to go about doing this. It seems that contacting your regional sales representative is one of the ways. What would be the best way to get into touch with them, by phone call or email?

I have very little experience with business interactions such as this one. I want to go about it the right way and be able to know what to expect and what to ask for. I would be interested in contacting beer companies such as Molson, or Labatt's to see if they could provide my business with anything since we sell their beer. I might also contact microbreweries to see if they are interested.

Does anyone have experience with a situation similar to this? I don't want to be told "no" by companies. What strategies would be most effective? What are some strategies would be ineffective or a common mistake? I am good with interacting with people but I'm lacking in the business sense. I want to be able to propose to the company that investing in the company in this way is worth it. Any tips would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

I have began researching and have found a few items. To any of the world-travelers out there who have been to France what did you consider to be of the best quality to buy? Every country seems to have a few staple items. What would you recommend buying? Are there any items to avoid price or quality wise?

I have had Windows 7 since the New Year and find it very much improved in comparison to Windows Vista. I have watched a lot of advertising that Microsoft does for Windows 7 and I want to know any of the special or added features Windows 7 has and how do you use them? Which ones are you favorite and does it make you computing or life easier? Thank you to everyone who participates.

I am really curious if I watch a video on YouTube if the unloader is notified that someone is viewing their video or can access a list of all the people who have viewed their video. Does anyone know the answer to this question?

I like the song Love Like Crazy by Lee Brice. People told a couple they shouldnt be together and they had been married for 58 years. Do you know any other examples. The longer the list the better. Thank you to all.

Is there a maximum amount of time an employer can keep you at the workplace to balance the till? Are there any laws that exist to protect the employees? Today I had the personal experience of having $37.00 over the amount expected. I had no documentation to prove why I had the money but had given 3 extra tickets to customers. I stayed one and a half hours today to attempt to balance the till and gave up. My manager told me I would have to stay as long as it took to fix my mistake(s). I was not compensated for the time and it was only my second day working. Are there any regulations or laws in the workplace that provide a time limit for how long employees have to stay after work being uncompensated? Or anything that apply to my situation to better my situation?

I know it aired last Sunday as well but I want to know the date it was filmed. It was filmed in Las Vegas and was just wondering if it was during the same time I was there.

For anyone who watched the show Roseanne and is familiar with the episodes, this question is for you. I have searched Google and YouTube high and low to answer this question, so I am reaching out to the Yahoo! Answers community for help.

Here is a brief overview of the plot of the episode (from what I remember):

Dan and Roseanne are strapped for cash and both are working all of the time. Darlene, Becky, and D.J. are left at home alone left to do all of the household chores including cooking for themselves. Becky and Darlene rotate jobs with cooking and doing the dishes. One night Darlene makes spaghetti noodles with Thousand Island salad dressing for dinner. Becky yells at Darlene for not doing the dishes and Darlene threatens her that it will be leftovers for dinner tomorrow night if she has to do them. Darlene says D.J. likes it.

I haven't seen this episode in at least five years and this is all I can remember.

Thank You in advance!

I know when people add you originally you can chose to put people on a limited profile, but how do you put people on a limited profile if you are already friends?

I understand it has something to do with Rick Astley's music video for 'Never Gonna Give you up', but I still do not comprehend. Please go into the best detail as possible.

Do you just write their name in your status and they are automatically tagged? Is it different if you are doing this on your BlackBerry?

Too often people post quotes they write themselves, and most often the 'suck' to put it bluntly. They ask for Yahoo! Answer members input and often I try to provide people with advice. Do people really think that they are revolutionary, original, and world renowned?

I am in the mood for a witty and funny answer. 10 points goes to the person who provides the most hysterical response. Why do people do it, what is their intelligence level, ect. Comment however you would like. What is your opinion of the majority of the original quotes that are posted on Yahoo Answers?

or would a textbook qualify as work by multiple authors?

I found the following statement online:

"Astronomer Edwin Hubble built one of the biggest of them all, measuring 100 inches in mirror diameter. His Mount Wilson reflector telescope made one of the biggest discoveries in astronomy of all time"

I Know that the Hubble Space Telescope was named in his honor but did he contribute to any advancements with telescopes? Did he only use telescopes, or did he improve them also?

I am curious and would be interested in knowing what sign, and the reasoning behind it.

I am sending resumes to possible employers, and am required to send them in a PDF format. How do I convert a word document file into a PDF? Is there a special program or does it involve copying and pasting?

How do you bring up something new that doesn't seem too random and you haven't seen the person in a year. It's at the point where it is do or die. The "what's new", "what are you plans for summer?" questions have been asked. What would you suggest?

I will take any topic ideas into consideration. I struggle with choosing a topic, but I do not have any topic worthy ideas. I have a free range to write about whatever I want. Any Women's Studies majors out there?

The sound on my computer isn't as loud as it normally is at maximum sound. The person who fixes the problem gets 10 points! I have had many sound issues with my laptop but do not know why. For the volume mixer it says it is at 100% but I know it normally sounds louder. Is there some setting I can adjust?

I am paranoid that someone has the ability to hack into my computer and watch my every move? How do you know? Could they install spyware? Could they gain access to my Facebook, Hotmail, Twitter, etc.? Is they a way to watch you through your webcam at all times? I have an anti-virus program, but it doesn't make me confident enough.
