12. Your boss tells your coworker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your coworker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company? Why or Why not?

I don’t think so.  I earned the job. I don’t think I owe my coworker that.  If the tables were turned, I don’t think I would be comfortable with a coworker offering to leave so he/she could save my job and family.

13. When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? Who was it? What did you have to tell the person?

Idk when the last time was but a while back I called my friend David because I didn’t know if I should stay fixated on my guy friend or go out and see how things play out with another boy, who is attractive, gentlemanly-like and interested in me.  I wasn’t confessing my undying love for David; the call wasn’t even about him.  It was still a difficult experience.

2: Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry? Do you still feel the same way?

The last time I was really angry was most likely at myself for running poorly or for screwing up on the AP exam.  I am still a little upset about the AP exam.  Mostly I get angry at myself for things.

4: You are at the doctor’s office and he has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? What do you do with your remaining days? Would you be afraid?

I don’t think I’d tell many people outside of my family.  Maybe not even my family until the last days so they wouldn’t have to worry.  I think I’d spend the time visiting beautiful places and doing a couple of things I’ve wanted to, but mostly I’d spend time with the people I care about.  I think I’d be more afraid than I’d let on.  I would also make sure I wrote something to each person I felt like I needed to say things to.

6: You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you take the time to save the dogs life? Why or Why not?

My immediate reaction is to save him and take my chances with the boss.  In all likelihood my boss would be the last thing I’d think about.  However, I am not always good with dogs and I’m a little afraid of some, in which case I’d get someone else to do something.   

8: Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say?

Him: Wow, I don’t know really what I’d do.  Part of me would want that and to tell him that I wanted this, most of me would not.  I’d tell him that I know what he’s feeling and for a long time I wanted him to feel that way, but it’s smarter if we don’t make anything more of our friendship, because I’m fickle and I only feel a certain way for a few weeks, and we’re great as is.  I don’t know though.

Her: Wow.  I’m sorry, I can’t feel the same way about you, but is there anything I can do to make this easier for you?
