Future boss making me feel uncomfortable, am I over reacting or should I leave situation?
My best friend set me up this job with her Brother-in-law working in a motorcycle shop. We (the Brother-in-law & I) have been emailing each other back and forth for the past few weeks or so because he is prepping me for what is going to happen during shows and whatever and in the shop (I live out of state and i’m going to travel to the job). Recently he has been saying things such as " In the meantime, you can unpack and look for those pants for me… or we can just throw caution to the wind and we will just have you wear thongs to the motorcycle events.." and " Your youth and attractiveness will give you a little forgiveness so think about attire to use assets to your advantage", "Do you have any current photos you can send." "Need you to resend personal photos and more if you have them. Holy jeans are great, not a requirement… But toga shots are a must. Smile, i am playing with you… A few photos would be great."

How do I deal with this without losing a really great potential job? And do you think I am being too sensitive?

Please answer because I’m supposed to leave with him on Thursday and I could use some advice.
I’m an 18 year old female and he is late 20’s early 30’s to put that in perspective, not that I think that should even matter because he is my future boss.
I can usually hold my own when it comes to this, and I love the industry, but i am deff new at it and i don’t want to give it up just because I get hit on, but i also don’t want to be treaded like a piece of meat by my boss.
He is a pretty nice and straight forward guy, I just wanted to know how to take it, because i’ve never been around bikers too much, just bikes, ha, if that makes and sense.


I dont mean to seem rude, or under estimate this guys attitude towards you….
but that being said, I would be questioning whether or not you belong in the industry….

having worked in the industry for a few years and having been raised in a family where riding motorcycles sit right up at the top of our list of important things to do, being able to hold your own is a pretty important skill. Part of the industry whether any one wants to admit it or not is simply that sometimes people do buy things based on who is selling it, and though it may seem sexist, alot of bikers/men will buy something from a hot chick as opposed to a not so hot chick….

I would question the photos unless he hasnt met you at all, in which case maybe he wants to see your personal style, so he knows what to expect. and even though it seems rude, your "assets" as he said, will give you a advantage….and he knows it. Theres a reason He isnt selling at these shows, LOL

***also maybe you should go online and check out peoples pics of sturgis and other bike events, so you can see what you are up headed towards. wardrobes tend to be based on personal choice and often all too revealing…. It isnt like he blatantly hit on you, or asked for sexual favors…..

Which of these movies you like the best?
sleepy hollow
the brother Grimm’s
the lord of the ring?

and why do you like it better than the others?


Sleepy Hollow! An excellent story that was comprehensive to all and JOHNNY DEPP, he’s reason enough. I found the other movies to be a little to ‘childish’. Trying to be funny when the stories were just circling, instead of a clear beginning, middle and end. Brother’s Grimm was just a disapointment altogether. Tim Burton needs to do a real brother’s grimm movie and knock it out of the park!

sleepy hollow because
1- tim burton directed it
2- it stars johnny depp (yummy)
3- christopher walken is a creeper in real life and plays one in the movie
4- the special effects are so cheesy that it is hilarious- i love it!

Sleepy Hollow and Lord Of the Rings.

The Brothers Grimm was not that good
CatWings: Pet dogs birth junk | Feb 02, 2010


First one to top my list Lord of the rings its epic, action packed good special effect, great stroy, wonderfully acted, romantic, love the friendship thorughout the movie, great scenes and music.

Second Sleepy hollow, love all of tim burtons movies, adore johnny depp plus A class actor
And the headless horseman is one of my great stories, but to tell the truth it had dissapointed in some scenes

the brothers grimm was so so, coul dhave been better but hey its was entertaining heath ledger had saved most of the movie
e.o. | Feb 02, 2010


The Lord of the Rings started the epic genre in film. You have to admit, when this film came out, you have never seen anything that extrodinary before. It was an epic adventure.

ghost | Feb 02, 2010

Fat feisty pony riding advice?
Yes, I posted this earlier, but I am going out tomorrow to ride and would like to have a better idea of a game plan.

A little background history, since people here are so judgmental if you don’t lead them to the water they will resist.

I have been riding for roughly 13 years, 8 of which with professional english hunt training. As a college student I can’t afford to pay to ride. But I will not let that stop me from riding. Thus far in my riding in college I have done mostly green horse training,with some friesians, worked for horse rescues, therapy riding ect. Now that I have my name in the "system" I have been contacted for doing exercise riding throughout the county. Now that I have options to chose who I ride for, and which horses. I have finally found a horse I bond with, which is not something that I have been getting these last few years.

She is an 8 year old Haflinger, about 14 hands. She was trained in Driving but rides a bit… but when you ask her to do anything more then what she wants to do, she’ll kick up, bucking at first but moving to just little kicking up one leg or another. Which, is nothing really concerning me, but the owner wants me to work on her to make her safe for the grandchildren (who are pretty capable riders for their age). She is trained in western, I am trained in english, with western by association. So its a learning experience.So, with that life story.

1. She is so fat, she doesn’t fit the girth of my bareback pad (which I have been using on all the fat ponies I have worked with..) also, because of her weight, she doesn’t have any really noticeable withers.
The women that I ride for only has western saddles, so question is, how can I get the best fit from a western saddle with her blimp-esque features. Otherwise I will just ride her bareback.

2. I have an arena thats 90×90, theres not much for training goods, no cones, no poles, not much… what could I do in it? Whats suggested for a horse thats quite overweight? I will be riding 1-2x a week.

3. How does one go about training neck reining? She direct reins, but owner wishes for her to know how to neck rein for the kids.


1st tell the owner to get a grazing muzzle to help with the weight (also will prevent Laminitis/founder).

They are going to need to get a saddle that fits her. The bucking might have started from an improper saddle fit (square skirts will hit the pony’s hip). Look for a round skirt saddle. With weight loss..she might actually have withers under their somewhere. If not there are alway treeless saddles.

I ride mostly english/dressage and I steer mostly with my legs (move away from pressure theory). the reins are more of a reminder of what my leg cues mean.

Hope this helps.
