Have you ever met a liar?

Ok, maybe 'liar' sounds too harsh. Have you ever met somebody whose word you cannot trust?

It's a pretty remarkable experience, when a person constantly promises things - doesnt matter what - and then does not carry out the promised action. Of course Caribbean workmen are like that....tailors too. But when it is somebody who professes to be a friend, it is pretty darned frustrating to be on the end of the undone action.

And no matter how you bring up that this frustrates you, this action still happens. Nuh time to dash dem weh? What yuh seh? You agree with me?

Seriously though, I take my word very seriously. If I tell somebody, and it doesnt have to be a friend, that I am going to do something - whether it's call at X time, drop off Y thing etc - then I will do it. And if something important prevents me from doing it, I am going to call the person to explain what I can or cannot now do. I think it is a very simple thing and shows respect and consideration for the other person.
