We all slip up sometimes at work and say something inappropriate to our employers. But just how badly do we do that? If you're concerned about crossing the line with the man or woman who signs your paycheck, here are a few things that you should definitelyavoid saying.

1."Can I borrow 20 bucks?"

2."Sorry I was late to work, I was taking a massive dump"

3."Is it okay if I smoke in here? I always thought the 'No smoking' signs were just suggestions"

4."I feel like our lives would be a lot easier if we just openly recognized the chemistry we have here."

5."I was really thinking about not coming into work today, but then I realized how badly I needed the money."

6."You're actually kind of alright. Everybody said you were a huge douche bag when I started working here."

7."I really hate my job"

8."Do you have a lighter?"

9."Is there another department here that you don't run?"

10. "Are you married?"

11. "I know someone I could totally set you up with."

12. "Are you sure you want to eat that...you know what it does to you."

13. "Did I see you at that Weight Watchers meeting last night?"

14. "I don't get paid enough to do that."

15. "What's the Wi-Fi password?"

16. "I think you'd be a lot more relaxed if you got laid."

17. "You'd look so much better if you got a nose job."

18. "How long do I have to work here before I can take my vacation days?"

19. "Are you on your period? Because you seem kind of cranky today."

20. "Can I have your number?"

21. "I'm new in town, do you know any good drug dealers around here?"

22. “Honestly, I just really don’t care enough to pay attention to what you’re saying to me right now.”

23. "I love you."

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
