I am always amazed with people and how they manage time. You make a plan hours in advance and everything is perfect. Then 30 minutes before the time of the meeting it becomes a disaster. I know after 40 years of managing a company I should know it is not possible for 2 people to be on time after it is planned in advance.
I know there is something wrong with me as I am on time 99% of the time.
I need to accept others for being late and be patient. You are right I am the only one that has no other things to do but wait on others that cannot plan to be on time.
I am just a bad person.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Now I feel better. I will enjoy another Eagle Rare.
At least I kept my commitment and set in front of the motel looking like someone waiting on a fix.
I agree, HD. What those people are saying is, "My time is worth way more than your's because I'm special and you're not."
What a great idea, being on TIME.
Being late, shows lack of manners and professionalism.
Goes a long ways toward a great meeting or just an okay meeting.
Well be warned we are getting peop!e now on eccie that were backpage providers and had pimps. She also used names of others that would vouch for her that are friends of mine so I will not review or call names as this dumbass mistake is on me.
I am just disappointed in how the hobby has gone to such a low.
I was not smart and lowered my standards.
Not again.
It’s not just the hobby. It’s in business, too. I fall all over myself apologizing if I’m five minutes late, which is quite rare. Some people who should know better think nothing of being 30 minutes late and not even calling to give a heads up, or mentioning it when they get there. It is mind boggling.
Me to, I am always on time. Hell I can tell someone days in advance what time I'll be there, and I'm there within 15 minutes or so of time I told them. Granted I do drive for a living and I'm guessing on traffic and other stops before them. If I can do that, then Providers should be able to be on Time! Yet I know that some are Always late, gets old..
Not sure if link will work, but cute song a friend sent me, maybe make ole Harley smile
If you are not early you are late. I am the type that goes above and beyond when I set something up. I understand everyone has emergencies that do happen, yet I find in most cases it is poor planning on some peoples part.
Yes I too have noticed "a different crowd" on eccie lately I often suggest they try BP. I have heard rumors a version of it exists if you like to take chances.
No wise ass remarks from me on this one. Shit happens but this is the age of cellphones. A simple call goes a long way.

99% of the time i'm notoriously on time. If i or we say that 5 is a good time, i'm usually there 455. Few things annoy me more than people being late,be it in personal life, work related or the hobby. Like HID said, a simple call goes a long way.
Personally, I don’t think people plan. Often we make plans then sometimes something interferes with that. I make plans one week in advance with a follow up couple days before meet up until a 12 hr window letting lady of interest know my schedule. Considering I work with the God awful public with a schedule. People like to make others work around their schedule. They come when they want to, they don’t follow directions, and most of all the fuckers don’t fuckin listen.
Thanks for all the comments. Good to know it is just not me. Remember karma is a bitch.
I remember a lady from ok that I scheduled with a few days in advance and was assured she was on the way and on time and assured me I would be her first.I arrived on time text her I was there. Waited about 10 mins and called and she said I am sorry but could I give her a little more time. She said her last client was almost ready to leave. I started laughing and said sure and drove off. Yes and hour later the texts were still coming and letting me know what an SOB I was. Took her hooker money and bought me a new golf club. It is still with me when I have the urge to play.
I have always been told to be early and never make someone wait on you that it is rude so I have done my best over the years to be on time.
In return I expect someone I'm going to meet to also be on time but when dealing with women I have been waiting on them my entire life.
If its a first meeting there is always some jitters and excitement involved and even anticipation and when it comes to the hobby world that just amplifies itself because your thinking why is she late...Then all sorts of things run thru your mind...
So it is definitely not good to have to wait !
Lol Being on time is one thing but what about a text or call on same day as contact. I have received text 3 days later.
