Advice from Judith Martin, Nicholas Ivor Martin and Jacobina Martin.
: My 27-year-old granddaughter says most people her age have tattoos, and don’t even cover them up at work.: There are two things here that Miss Manners would like to avoid: finding out what you believe constitutes a “legitimate business,” and challenging workplace policies that have already been established and with which everyone seems to be content.
Without waiting for an answer, they say something like, “You must be at least 6 foot, because I am 5-foot-10.” These men are invariably much shorter than their stated heights, which further adds to the discomfort of the situation. I don’t own a cat because I am severely allergic, and can’t have cat hair anywhere close to me without taking allergy meds . My children are just as allergic.
Against my better judgment, I tried to clean the furniture with a roller brush, but the cat hair will not come off. I can’t use my vacuum, because then it would have cat hair inside it and I’d have to get rid of it.
