Would you inform HR if you overheard two coworkers using the company phone to contact a drug dealer, make arrangements to meet on company property to buy pills, and then see them take the pills while on the job? I'm still new to the company (2 months).

In my mind, it was cool story about a girl who survived the occupation, went on to have her story made into a movie, etc. Her dying at the end caught me COMPLETELY off guard.

How much would it cost in gas to travel to florida in my 1994 ford ranger from new york right near the canadian border i figure about 1200miles?
Hmmmmm....let's see....
It depends on what kind of gas mileage you get.
I think a Ranger has an 18 gallon tank and gets about 14 - 18 miles per gallon. So I'll use those figures...
You divide the distance, by how many miles per gallon...
1200 / 14 = 86 (roughly)
That means it will take 86 gallons to get to your destination.
Next you figure gas price is around $3,...

However, the expression does not actually refer to use of the hat as a container. A "ten-gallon" hat in fact holds less than a gallon of water, and a hat that held ten gallons would be unwearable.
