• People who Flake

  It is time for a rant…

  I take issue with people that have a tendency to flake.  I find it disrespectful and in turn my respect for that person takes a nose dive.  It really irks me that if plans are made with a person, not hours in advance, not days in advance, but weeks in advance and there are numerous reminders of that date, they still flake.  I do not understand why they do it, but I just have resolved to no longer make plans with those kinds of people.  It is their personality flaw that they have to work out, and I choose not to deal with it.  Having that personality flaw says a lot about that person, such as they are most likely: Selfish (and not in a positive way), lacking in time management skills, self-centered, disrespectful and discourteous.  If you cannot keep plans, then I believe more than a few hours warning would be appropriate, unless there is a developing emergency (in this instance there was none).

  We are judged by the company we keep as they are a reflection of ourselves.  If a person keeps company that embodies character traits that they strive for then that person will only better themselves by spending time with those people.  If a person however keeps company with people with negative traits, then that person is more likely to slowly adopt those negative traits.

  People that waste my time are out, you know who you are and I refuse to make any further plans with you.  You want back in, you make the initiative
