Ocean City, NJ USA The perpetual one of whether to stay or go. Felicia, 36
Lowell, MA USA About five years ago I reconnected with a childhood friend whom I hadn't seen since we were twelve. Twenty-five years ago I heard some accurate but very unattractive gossip about her father. Last week we were talking about divorce and she mentioned that her father had been quite the back fence stud--to her mother's distress. I thought for a time and then asked my friend if she'd like to hear the old dirt. She decided that she would. She had another piece of her father's personality. Her mother was delighted by the dirt.

Saylorsburg, PA USA what the hell is a quandry? Alesha, 15
NJ USA I'm dealing with a situation where the director of an organization is making the lives of the staff miserable. They complain to me but ask me to not go to the director or the president about their complaints. Recently the situation came to a head and I had to decide if I was going to go against their wishes. Laura, 37
Lowell, MA USA Well, I've never been in a "quandry", but I have been in a "quandary" (sorry, couldn't help pointing it out!) Just last night I had to choose which kind of bread to make... garlic or wheat? Making the decision was excruciating as I like both so much and was going to be disappointed that I didn't make the other... oh the humanity! I decided on garlic because we are having spaghetti tonight and thought it would go better. (The bread turned out great, by the way.) Doug2, 29

Ames, IA USA I'm in some kind of quandry almost daily... Nicci, 27
Las Vegas, NV USA My last quandry was deciding if I should resign from my current job and accept on of two other offers I had on the table. Decided today, and resigned and accepted a new job which starts on June 3rd. One of the hardest decisions I have had to make. Kevin, 33

McMinnville, OR USA Which of two pending programming projects I would choose to take on. The quandry was resolved when one of the prospective clients decided against using my agency. Jane, 62
West Linn, OR USA That's easy...I sell things through half.com and one of the 'rules' is that when someone orders one of the items you are selling, you will mail it to them within 24 hrs. Monday, I sold two items and was going to stop at the post office on my way home from work on Tuesday and mail them off. However, I came down with the flu and had to go home from work in a cab. I was so sick that there was no way I could go to the post office. I thought that I would feel better on Wednesday and would somehow get to the post office but the next day I was even sicker. And Thursday and Friday, too. Fortunately, my husband took off Thursday to stay home and take care of me and he took the stuff to the post office and mailed it Top Priority. So it turned out OK. Reba, 50+
Silver Spring, MD USA I guess the last quandary I was in was when I had to decide to either leave my last job or stay on. I mulled it over, weighing the good and the bad for about a full month before making my final decision. Then I really just wanted to screw them over and leave them in a lurch...but I couldn't. Somehow, I guess my upbringing has taught me never to burn my bridges. So I did the mature thing and gave two weeks notice, slacking off completely during the final two days; my own little personal compromise. Fisch, 47
Preston, CT USA Whether or not to tell a co-worker the truth about how they are perceived from the boss on their job performance. Janet, 44
