What is it about me that makes me always late! Even when I meticulously plan things out and am very careful about estimating how long things take and plan very carefully I still somehow manage to be late!
The Summer Semester at UVU started today and so I am going back to school. (But the end is finally starting to be in sight!) I knew if I left work 1/2 hour before the start of class time I should be able to park, find the classroom, and get to class on time. I really wanted to start the semester right, work towards my new year goal of time management and arrive on time.
However, five minutes before I was to walk out the door four guests walked in the door swamping Pat. And of course they all had complicated problems that she didn't know how to help them with. So I ended up having to stand at the desk fixing reservation extensions (that clash with someone else's reservation), an incorrect billing to an extended stay guest, and some other problems.
In the end I was nearly 25 minutes late arriving to class! It is so frustrating that no matter how hard I work, something always seems to conspire against my being on time. I can't ignore the customers and their needs and yet I can't skip class! Is there some cosmic joke that means I will never be able to be on time! (sigh)
