I try to go through life not worrying about pet peeves. I have many and at times can complain about them excessively. As I advance my professional work life, I have been blessed with the opportunity to manage people. Manage can be a loose term and I, at times, prefer to "lead" people, but that is another blog. Besides four way stop signs and those who throw cigarette butts on the ground, employees that either show up right on time or a little late drive me crazy. Remember the saying, and I might not have it correct, "Five minutes is on time, on time is late and late is unacceptable?" My college professor taught me this phrase and I do everything possible to follow it. Granted, there are times I show up late. Any of you with young children understand. When I am going to be late, a text or phone call is a must.
So if you are the individual that likes to show up right a starting time or even a little after, then you won't be an employee under my lead very long. If you are the employee that shows up 5 minutes early and asks what can be done, then we will get along very well.
God Bless and thanks for reading.
