For the last two weeks, I have been working for a small company in New York City (Manhattan) doing some consulting work and am unsure as to whether I need to charge my client sales-tax for services rendered. If so, how do I find out who to remit payment to? Thirdly, would it be more commonplace to simply scale back the amount I am charging them to include the sales-tax in the daily rate we originally agreed-upon?


Answer
No.

The city of new york taxes the following:

1. Most tangible personal property (i.e. alcohol, furniture, electronics, etc.);
2. Gas, electricity, refrigeration, steam, telephone, and telegraph services;
3. Detective, cleaning, and maintenance services;
4. Occupancy of hotel and motel rooms;
5. Food and beverages sold by restaurants and caterers;
6. Admission charges to places of amusement;
7. Receipts from beauty, barbering, hair restoring, manicures, pedicures, electrolysis, massage, and other, similar services;
8. Receipts from the sale of services by or use of facilities of weight control salons, health salons, gymnasiums, and similar establishments;
9. Sales of credit rating and credit reporting services;
10. Receipts from the sales of the service of parking, garaging, or storing motor vehicles;


So unless your service is one of the few listed above (like a cleaning or detective work... ) then you don't charge a sales tax... I'm assuming your doing some sort of business type consulting work... in which case your like a lawyer and don't charge a sales or use tax.

How to make people comfortable with my hideous dark circles?

Well I've started to notice how people are treating a friend of mines its like he tries so hard to be nice but people seem to look at him like he's a worthless freak because of his under eye condition... He looks normal i'd say if it wasnt for it but i see people talk to him face to face and just act different like he's a disease. They don't like to look at him in the eye and if they do their kinda hostile to get away from him. Ive heard ppl say he looks like a zombie, freak, like he needs sleep, mean. I guess his conditon makes ppl uncomfortable. I guess its true that people only like beauty and normality. I just want to help em. It seems no matter what he does people just dislike em and become uncomfortable around em here is a photo. What do you guys suggest will make people less focused on his look and be able to look at him without being uncomfortable and looking at him like he's disgusting all the time.

PS Us girls were makeup and i dont think men are supposed to they get picked on if they do.

Here is a photo similar to his look.

Answer
Use an eye cream with caffeine, which helps constrict vessels (try Lancôme Rénergie Microlift R.A.R.E. Intense Repositioning Eye Lifter; $72, lancome-usa.com). Other smart alternatives: Arnica-based creams (found at health-food stores), which are considered to have anti-inflammatory properties, may reduce the appearance of darkness. And eye creams with green tea or grapeseed oil help strengthen capillary walls (try Replenix Intensive Eye Lightening Serum, $61, dermstore.com). You can tweak your diet, too. Flavonol-rich dark chocolate (an ounce a day) and foods full of omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, walnuts) may improve blood flow to the skin, says Lisa Drayer, a registered dietitian in New York City.
