How to Change a Flat Tire

There are basic skills everyone needs in life: communication, friendship, and the ability to change a flat tire. Its easier than most think and it can be done by anyone. No one thinks they need to know how to do it, until they actually get a flat. Don't be the person that is trying to flag down drivers because you can't change a flat tire yourself.



Step 1: Pull the jack and spare tire out of the car, usually located underneath the floorboard of the trunk

Step 2: Place the jack underneath the car, and line it up with the jack point (check owners manual).

Step 3: Use your tire iron and loosen all the lug nuts off the tire, then remove the tire.

Step 4: Place the spare tire on the car and tighten the lugs about 90%.

Step 5: Lower the car and tighten the lugs as tight as you can.

You need to keep the flat tire so that the new tire can be placed on the rim. The rule of thumb is to never drive more than 45 mph and never drive farther than 200 miles.

Step 2: Pull the wide end down so that the skinny end is between your nipple and your belly button.

Step 3: Cross the wide end over the middle of the skinny end.

Step 4: Wrap the wide end up through the opening at the top and pull it to the right side.

Step 5: Hold the tie at the cross with your left hand and with your right hand wrap the wide end around the cross one full time, with the wide end ending at the right side.

Step 6: Wrap the wide end thought the opening at the top and push it through the hole you in Step 5.

How to Peel a Banana

All my life I hated bananas because every time I would try to open one, my banana would turn into banana mush. My friend taught me this one and I hope it helps.



Step 1: Flip the banana around so that the stem part is on the bottom.

Step 2: Pinch the part that is now at the top, "the butt", and peel.

Trust me, you will never want to peel a banana a different way again.

How to Win the BK Eclipse Scratch Off

The Burger King Eclipse scratch off promotion has been going on since the beginning of summer and is ending quickly. I get a Coke Icee every day and play the game. This is how I usually win.

Step 1: Buy a drink or fry that has the scratch off cups, cheapest is a medium coke icee.

Step 2: If you do not want to buy anything from BK you can go to bkeclipse.com and they will send you a free game piece.

Step 3: Scratch off the bottom circle.

It's that simple. Since I started playing around June 15th I have only lost 5 times by picking the bottom. So hurry out to BK before the 18th to win some free food!

How to Bag Groceries

Step 1: Make sure to bag only like items (frozen with frozen, cold with cold).

Step 2: Try your best to bag things in a way that it makes a square. The more square things you have the easier it is to fit more in the basket.

Step 3: When bagging cans you should place six cans in one bag, and then tie the bag to prevent them from rolling out in the car.

Step 4: Two liter pops can fit two to a bag. Try to place this in the cart first.

Step 5: Place all the heavy bags in the cart first; this prevents lighter objects from being squished.

Step 6: Large items, such as watermelons and dog food, do not have to be bagged unless specified by the customer.

Step 7: 12 packs of pop are usually placed underneath the cart on the bottom rack.

Step 8: If an item feels too heavy when bagging, you can double bag it, or even triple bag if needed.

Step 9: Ask the customer if they would like their milk, detergent, or ice tea in a bag. If a customer does not need a bag for their milk, they usually do not need one for anything else with a handle, so at that time you would no longer need to ask.

Step 10: Yogurts can fit up to 20 in a bag, just tie it up when you put them in.

Step 11: When dealing with fruits, separate them by placing hard fruits with hard, and soft with soft. Vegetables are not normally separated.

Step 12: NEVER bag unlike meats together! You do not want fish juice leaking all over your chicken or chicken juice leaking all over you meats. You must bag all meats separately unless specified by the customer.

Step 13: Delicate foods like tomatoes and bread should be saved for last. There is nothing that makes a person angrier then having a squashed tomato when they come home. Bread can fit up to four in a bag but two is just fine. These items should be placed on top of the foods, finishing the order.

Step 14: If an order is too large for one cart, don't be afraid to get another one. But at the end of the order remember to ask the customer if he or she would like help going out to their car.
