Rant

It is not `fashionable` to be late,it`s bleeding bad manners to do it consistently. What snapped me tonight was a `friend` on the phone however.

I ring,she says `just a minute and I will ring you back` That was an hour ago-I ring again and get voice mail.

I`m a decent bloke but I do not like being taken for granted.

Another example-a different friend said `I will be there between 12 and 12.30`---------at 12.50 she arrives and just honked the horn. No sorry I`m late.


Grrrr.

If I say am going to be at a certain place at a certain time , I make sure I am, it discourteous to be otherwise .

Re: Rant

I always arrive early particularly for doctors appointments and then find I do not get to see the doctor until about 20 minutes or so after my appointment. Very annoying but I still wouldn't change I would prefer to be a little early for any agreed date.

I usually do the same for dental appointments also. Those extra few minutes are used to relax before the visit. Mind you, with the amount of people that use mobiles in the waiting room, that does not always work!

I'm always on time, unless I have trouble lacing my corset like I did Friday night!
