Do you ever get the feeling that other people feel as if their time is more important than your time. Then you start to feel that you’re being taking advantage of? Sometimes that’s exactly how I feel. I truly understand that we all have busy lives. We all are going in 50 directions at the same time. But to make others feel as if they’re not as important as you or your other colleagues. If you have lunch plans with someone at noon and realize you’re not going to make it on time you should call and let them know, or to reschedule.

Being late means 5 minutes… maybe 10 to the extreme, anymore than that may need to be a reschedule. The golden rule holds true here, treat others as you wish to be treated!

Growing up we called this courtesy. What happens is when you do this to everyone else they start doing it to you. When someone else is an hour late you’d be pissed. How can you complain about it when you’ve done it yourself?

OK… I’ll get my ass off the soapbox for now.
