Reasons for being late to a meeting

08 Aug

I was cutting it fine trying to make a meeting in South Melbourne the other day and low and behold, as I drove through Albert Park Lake, some ducks decided to cross the road really slowly. 5 minutes later, I was back enroute to my meeting with Melbourne’s top recruitment company for IT professionals.

Behind schedule by 5 minutes, then I couldn’t believe it – an elderly lady decided to cross the road. Another 5 minutes later… and yes, I was late by 10 minutes, but at least I had the pictures to prove it!

Being late for meetings isn’t ideal. If you don’t know the directions to your meeting, make sure you leave plenty of time. In today’s high-tech environment, whilst you are early for a meeting, you can always hop on your iphone or blackberry and do some work.

I drop a comment each time I appreciate a article on a site
or I have something to valuable to contribute to the conversation.
It's a result of the fire communicated in the article I looked at.

And after this post Reasons for being late to a
meeting - Marketing Eye. I was actually excited
enough to post a thought :-P I actually do have
some questions for you if it's allright.
Is it only me or does it give the impression like some of these responses look as if
they are coming from brain dead folks? :-P And, if you
are writing on other online social sites, I'd like to
follow you. Would you make a list all of your shared pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page
or twitter feed?

Undeniably consider that that you said.
Your favorite reason appeared to be at the internet the simplest factor to have in mind of.

I say to you, I definitely get irked even as other folks consider concerns that they plainly
don't recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the entire thing without having side-effects , other folks could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

Hi just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you
know a few of the pictures aren't loading correctly. I'm not sure
why but I think its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same results.

Hey superb website! Does running a blog such as this take
a great deal of work? I have very little
understanding of coding but I had been hoping to start my own blog soon.
Anyways, if you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share.

I know this is off topic but I simply had to ask. Cheers!

Hmm it looks like your site ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess
I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly
enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for first-time blog writers? I'd really appreciate it.
