Gurus Wasting My Time

What's the quickest way to piss me off?

WASTE MY TIME

For the past week, I had 3:30-4:00 pm marked in my calendar for today. I knew that I had to be in the office for a recorded phone call with one of the "gurus" for his blog. We were going to talk about BiggerPockes and the state of real estate. To make time for this, I set aside various other opportunities and meetings.

At 3:26pm I called the conference call phone number and waited. At 3:30pm I waited some more. At 3:37 I hung up and went on my way.

HE NEVER SHOWED UP FOR THE CALL!

Sure I was able to get some things done while waiting those 11 minutes, but I rearranged my life to make sure I could be on the call.

Want to catch someone in a foul mood . . . try me!

Ok -- I feel a little better now that I got that off my chest, but there's no chance in hell I'll deal with this guy again unless there is a REALLY good explanation!

:roll: :roll:

Maybe he was busy at his day job.
