  • Costco problems?

    Hello, I was at Costco pretty recently with my mom (both of us adults) and so here's what happened.

    She and I walked into Costco and she saw a magazine that she wanted to get (Seahawks) anyway I was talking with her and in the process of talking I mentioned something about photography which caused her to think if there were any pictures there for us so she turned the cart around and went toward the photo area which was in the reverse direction ( toward the door) as she did this a security guy approached us and made notice of the magazine implying that we had every intention of leaving without paying for it without even the ability to explain the circumstances the guy brought us into the back room and about five of them started asking questions accusatorily and threatening police action. Flustered neither my mom or myself thought of the fact shoplifting only applies if the object/s are deliberately concealed or consumed, or leaves the building which none of this happened.

    It being our first and only "offense" they took my mom's info down and in the process saw that we had spent thousands of dollars there in just the last six months giving us / her no reason to be stealing a two dollar magazine. Humiliated by the experience she will not return and I myself have a strong disliking of Costco now and am ashamed to have worked there ( same company different location) This still bothers me and I feel like something should be done.

    don't want to sue

    thank you

  • not sure how to ask this question but (women only) please answer?

    Okay so I've been sitting here trying to think of a way to ask this without sounding like a chauvinist.

    I've noticed that women ( un-related and un associated to each other) have been super friendly, like they want me to maybe ask them out, and this happens a lot around fall but in the winter nothing like that happens and then it begins again toward the end of spring I'm not saying it's every woman ( I am not so self centered as that) I guess what I am trying to get at is that, is there a correlation between the time of year and a woman's willingness to go out with a man? Sorry if I offended anyone but this has been on my mind for quite a while now..... so thanks for answering

  • professional photographers?

    I have skill, that is not the question I just need to know whether being a pro photog is an option I dont want to jump in just to find out that there are no options for a photographer in this economy. Hey, I know the economy sucks but I am skilled in photography more than anything else and as I am in a situation that a normal "carrer" would not work for me right now I just need to know if I should even try and I know that this is probably not a question that pro's answer but I could really use some guidence here thank you.

  • not sure what has happened here, please advise?

    Hi, in 1998 I fell in love with a beautiful woman that I was fortunate enough for her to be my girlfriend, and some stuff happened and so we ended up separated, this is not the issue but still important. So since 1998 I have (involuntarily mind you) been thinking about this relationship and how much I loved and missed her. BAM all of the sudden I am not thinking of her and it doesn't hurt to think about her and I am free of the pain involved with the memories Sure okay , yeah this is a good thing but I have no idea what happened. I would prefer if someone that has some psychological education would please reply but I will appreciate any and all responses, I just am curious as to how this has happened. Thank you. One more thing, these thoughts and pain are not repressed, I have always let myself feel whatever it is that I am feeling about this so nothing even had a chance to be repressed. Thank you for reading all this I know it was a little long but all of it was necessary to spell out all that has happened.

  • How Contagious is this?

    I have this friend that I rock climb with, we went climbing but I forgot my water jug so we both used one ( not gay just thirsty) anyway on the way home he mentioned that he has crones disease. I Didn't say anything about it because I know next to nothing about it but am wondering how contagious it is and should I now be checked for it or is that not necessary? Normally I would have never shared a water bottle with someone but I have known this guy for a very long time and was mad thirsty. Please respond only if you are absolutely sure of your answer, thank you.
