Wasted MY time?

[Cataholic]

I don't see 30 clients a day, of course. BUT, if I am running late, I certainly do not take a lunch. I might take a bite, chew, and walk into the meeting, but, I eat lunch after the meeting. I do not keep people waiting. There are exceptions, I might be on a teleconference, or just a long winded phone call (not of my doing), but, everyone's time is important. I am never more than a few minutes late, and that is rare. Course, I do have clients that walk in fifteen minutes late on occasion.

If we are running behind my boss never stops for lunch. We tease him sometimes that we should hook up an IV for him so he can get some nourishment on those long days. We have three techs and three office people where I work. We all stagger our lunches so that there is always ample coverage and the office runs smoothly all day long.
