The majority of people that I know are bad with time. Often, they are trying to perform numerous tasks at once and try to fit things into their schedule. This habit has a detrimental effect on timing, situations, and people. I have one friend who is perhaps the worst person when it comes to time management.
I called my friend on Saturday afternoon to ask if he could pick me up from the bus station. He agreed and said "Call me when your almost there." I called him when I was nearby. He explained to me that he would be on his way in a few minutes. Once I got off the bus, I went to McDonalds to escape the cold. As I waited in McDonalds, I notice the manager looking at me as if I do not belong there. I decide to call my friend back to determine how far along he was. He stated, "Yo! I had to wait for my sister to come but I am leaving my house now." Now, I have already been waiting in McDonalds for over half an hour. I am also forced to buy some nasty food from this place so the manager would stop looking at me. After I finish eating, I call him back and he explained that he was getting on the freeway and would be to me in five minutes. After another 15 minutes he arrived and I wanted to kick his ass. Overall, I waited over a hour for this guy. I could have easily called a cab or found another ride. Whats wrong with saying you have prior engagements or other things to do?

Tatle Tale
Why do people tell on each other? Is it because they are unfortunate to be in another person's situation? Well, a few minutes ago I fell victim to a Tattle Teller. I am currently in a computer class that is very boring. It is a two hour class and the time really drags. I would not have been present today but an assignment was due. As I begin to enter the class, I notice the professor is late. Most of the students in the class are running around trying to put together their final assignment. The professor enters during this time but decides to leave and allow the class a chance to get their assignments together. My assignment is already done and I decide to drop it off and leave. I did not want to stay for the long two hours. However, my friend did not have his assignment together and he did not want me to leave. He decides to block the door and wrestle with me to prevent me from leaving. The professor enters the class and now I am forced to stay. Not only am I forced to stay, but he decides to tell the professor that I was trying to sneak out. WHAT KIND OF SHIT IS THAT!!?? Unnecessary!!
