This Monday morning I had an 8 o’clock meeting. Of course, I showed up around 8:20 and the other two people scheduled to attend the meeting, included the one who scheduled it, were a little pissed that I was 1) late and 2) didn’t apologize for it.
Listen. Anything before 9 am is early for me. So, if you schedule a meeting at 8, on a Monday morning(!), you deserve what you get. I even warned this schmuck when he scheduled it, knowing fully that I would forget about the early start time. My exact words: “Are you sure you want this to begin at 8?” So, it’s not like he didn’t have a heads up.
What’s worse, is that after this meeting finally gets under way, his first question is, “So why are we meeting?” WTF!!! You scheduled this thing, at an ungodly hour, and you don’t even know why? Hey pal, ever heard of an agenda? Asshat.
