    If only.

    They do random drug screens at my job. If they find even .01% alcohol in your system, you're fired. On the spot. No questions. Someone has to go get your stuff off the yard. You are not allowed anywhere but out the gate.

    It's "you". In everyday english you only have one version of the personal pronoun, "you". In former times you had "thou" for single persons, "you" for groups or in a formal conversation. In German there are still all versions of this in use.

    Well, it's more respectful than the normal sie, so I attribute it to mean around those

    Success!

    I was taught that the capitalized "Sie" is used to indicate respect/formality.

    I kind of miss my German teacher, he was lots of fun. :<

    In former times, "ye" was the plural "you". How I miss it. Now we have to do with made-up words like "yous", "you all", and "y'all".
    I still love how your avatar looks flabbergasted at a quote.
