Why do people drive on the side of speed tables?

Haruki asked:


I’ve noticed that some people like to move over close to the curb and drive on the edge of speed tables. Why don’t they just drive over them normally?

What are the accent tables called that are usually found behind a couch when the couch is dividing a room?

Alora77 asked:


The tables are taller than coffee tables but longer than end tables. Usually they are behind a couch when the floor plan is open and the couch is not near a wall. I don’t know what to use as my key words in a search and I’m not finding what I want….

What to do during an earthquake, if you are in a small room with no tables or furniture to hide besides?
And if their is bookshelf’s in the room and a window with no furniture to hide besides or under. And you cant escape the room. Where do you hide?
Do you hide in the doorway with the door open or with the door closed behind it? Or somewhere else?
And what if theirs no door, but you cant get out for some reason?

How do I get my cat to stop batting everything off tables and counters?

deliverychick asked:


My cat who is about 1 yr old has recently started knocking everything off counters, tables, nightstands, etc. She purposely takes her paws and swats at anything within reach to knock it to the floor. She is especially bad when she wants my attention, like 3-4 am. Everything from computer speakers, to alarm clock, lamps, hardback books is ending up on my floor. How do I make her stop and discipline her? I try locking her in the bathroom, but she continues once she gets back out. Ideas PLEASE!!!!!

How to train a cat to stay off tables and countertops?

Anne asked:


My cats have become very comfortable spending time on the tables and countertops while I’m out of the house. When I’m home, I have to constantly shoo them off. Any ideas how to effectively train them to stay off once and for all?

What is the general level of employment that is below waiting tables?

delectable asked:


Isn’t there a single level of employment that includes such positions as busing, dish washing, sweeping parking lots, etc. I thought I heard it referred to as general utility work but I’m not sure enough to put it on an application and I am really searching for a job but probably don’t have enough formal employment experience to land a job waiting tables. Thanks.
