I have to admit that I hate inappropriate behaviour from people who are supposed to be professional with you. I had worked at my old job with my boss for years and he was one of the most polite, respectable people you could find. After he left though he started calling me all the time and making inappropriate comments and telling me that he had fallen in love with me. I had so much respect for him before that and I was so angry that someone I considered so much as a mentor I could no longer speak to. :disagree:
I can be your Kama Sutra mentor ;)

People say [Andy] Murray's miserable because he doesn't smile very often. He's not miserable. He's normal. Have you walked down a street recently? Any street in the country? Go on, pick one. Take a stroll. Bring a notepad. Make a note each time you spot someone walking around beaming like they just taught their dog to shit money. Chances are you'll cross six postcodes before you glimpse so much as a smirk. Which isn't to say people are inherently unhappy. Just that they've got better things to do with their faces than walking around bending their mouths up like idiots.

The people who want Murray to smile are the same ones who try to make me dance at weddings. They want the world to conspicuously enjoy itself in a manner of their choosing, and they turn vaguely sanctimonious when they encounter pockets of resistance, as though their definition of fun is the only one that matters.

Now I understand the context. Even so, I would so add that to the survey answer!

Earthy, smoky reds? I'm surprised you're not a Rhone freak: Syrahs, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Carignan...

And if you're looking for great bargain wines in that smoky red style, I have to plug a lot of Portuguese Alentejo wines.
I think it's more that the quality of the ones I have tried here haven't been great, and I tend to stick with certain wines as I have no money :p

relationship should be kept mostly professional, especially if you're his subordinate. if that were to get reported to HR it'd be trouble.
Ours is a strange relationship, as we were friends before we started being teacher/student. In class time we are very professional, and anything to do with school is done over the proper channels, with proper wording, but the moment class is over we talk personal lives, and often end up at the same house parties together.
