    But there are also people who just straight up think their lives are more important than yours.
If only there was a way to screen for that in job placement or spousal unit interviews. Maybe a multiple choice question:

You have promised to show up at 8:00 a.m. You come at 8:20. The first thing you say is:

1) My alarm clock wasn't working.

2) Did you get my text? No? Damn technology.

3) You are justifiably angry. I can see that now your next meeting is delayed. I'm not sure how I can make it up to you, but if I'm ever late again, I would understand if you fire my ass.

4) What's the big deal?

thenewgreen keep rocking my world, dude.
