Especially if the person that she feels symphaty for is married?<br />
What should she do? :o</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I hate my job, I absolutely hate retail and especially at this store. I've been working there for a month but so far I've only been scheduled to work once a week. My boyfriend tells me to stick it out because I need a job and something is better than nothing. But at 8 hrs a week, its just enough for gas and food to eat while working, so would it be insane to quit my job? I'm already on a job hunt and I don't know how long it's going to take.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>In this scenario a new girl joins a team at a corporate office. She is a receptionist. The other receptionist has been working a little longer and is slightly older.<br />
<br />
The other established staff all get on quite well but at birthdays do not show much attention towards getting gifts etc. for each other, only certain people. <br />
<br />
On occasions there are pass arounds i.e. to give donations for a gift which was quite big one time for an older lady who is normally quite generous anyway.<br />
<br />
Normally the attitude can show a little &quot;why should I&quot;?  Donations are definelatyly not emotionally or financially when the occansion arises. <br />
<br />
So, the older receptionist is normally quite generous to the staff team (giving of gifts) and friendly but on her birthday was shown little interest, even when she bought in a cake etc.<br />
<br />
The new girl invited the colleagues all to her birthday party in a restaurant. Which may have stimulated a financial obligation from staff. <br />
<br />
They could not all make it but were really debating over what to get her for almost a week. Eventually they bought her a gift at which the cost combined came up to more than their normal combined individual donations for any member of staff. Even the older lady who gives people a lot.<br />
<br />
With regards to reportoire she is very friendly and a nice person but mostly keeps to herself comfortably.<br />
<br />
Any comments?</div>
