What if we stopped making excuses and accepted responsibility?
Apr 23 2008, 12:20 PM EDT
Not that libraries do this but staff. What if staff stopped saying "I'm busy, I can't ___" but instead admitted the responsibility lies with them. I think we are ALL pretty busy. Telling me you are busy implies that I am not. I'm just as busy but if something falls off my radar I admit it and try to make amends. What if we all admitted we are busy but that we sometimes make poor choices. It's all about choice and the consequences of that choice. 3  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

I just wish people would be honest enough to say "no" when it may be necessary to say "no." If they say they are too busy then I take take the time to sit with them to prioritize their assignments. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
