Episode 216: Under the Crust

Outline
05:04 - My friend, who is now also my boss, swears a lot at work. While it's never directed at his employees specifically, it's usually in ways that feel over-reactive and out of the blue for work conversation. It's generally shocking and uncomfortable for me and (I sense) my fellow employees as well. I strongly compartmentalize work and free time, and swearing doesn't usually bother me more in casual situations. Do I tell him it bothers me since he's my friend, or do I suck it up and deal with it because he's my boss, and do I bring it up on or off the clock? -- Swear Jar In Chicago

I heard somebody tell me that her daughter had braces but she did the extreme tightening method. I've never heard of that before, but is it possible to get your braces extremely tightened so that you can quicken the process?

16:06 - I just recently decided to head back to school in hopes of improving my job outlook. A problem that most students have had to deal with has come back to haunt me. There's a student in the class who insists on making comments constantly. He has some experience with the coursework (probably from related classes) and constantly makes comments to show how much he knows and get ahead of the professor. Most people probably just deal with this, and I had in almost every class I've taken, but I really hate this guy and all guys (or gals) like him. How can I get him to shut the fuck up so I can just enjoy my class? -- Annoyed In The Mountain-West

38:36 - Hi brothers! There's a cute sign-shaker girl on the corner a few miles from my house, and I want to ask her out. My question is how to approach her? I'm assuming pulling up in my car is out of the question, and she's surrounded by empty plots of land, so there's no other reasons for me to be there. Can you help me approach her and strike up a conversation in the least awkward way possible? -- Seeking Signs In San Jose

Is there a way I can moan as loud as I can without being heard by my parents? What can I do to achieve this any tips?

Thanks!
