Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on October 31, 2013 at 8:11 AM

I will never give Zales one more dime. After the fiasco of having to have that ring sized three times for them to get it right. After being treated like shit in one of the other stores because I had...

So H and I got married on 9/28/13 and other than the two nights I was stranded at work due to the weather we have not been apart. I feel like a big baby, he left 30 minutes ago to drive an hour to his...

NWR: So they fired me
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on June 5, 2014 at 1:19 PM

Teehee I am rather amused. My now former employer fired me basically because I turned in my four weeks notice. And I learned a whole new level of passive aggressive behavior over the last four days....

NWR: I just put in four weeks notice
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on June 2, 2014 at 10:08 AM

I just turned in a letter of resignation giving my current employer four weeks notice that I am leaving and got informed that I am in the wrong, that that is not enough notice. I always thought two...

Should I post this review
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on January 28, 2014 at 5:56 PM

Heres my dilemma we hired an acquiantance to do our photography. He did a really subpar job. He does other kinds of photography rather well (horror, risque, etc). He has photographed other events well...

Please reconsider that cheap photographer
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on January 22, 2014 at 3:15 PM

Ok so we did our wedding on a really tight budget (or at least we considered it tight). One of the areas I attempted to cut corners on was photography. I thought $1000 for a photographer...

Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on January 17, 2014 at 4:00 PM

I was just reading a couple of posts and a thought occurred to me. (It got lonely so I thought I would share it) Watch how you phrase something, quite often when we think we are being cute on a...

NWR: Not wanting kids and not wanting be around others kids does not make me evil
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on January 16, 2014 at 4:50 PM

So Why Did/Didn't You send out an STD?
Mrs Drakthal in Etiquette and Advice, on January 15, 2014 at 3:38 PM
