Things of the Past?

Professionalism?  

Work ethic?

Respect?

Do these things still exist?  Or are they slowly fading from existence?  More and more I am beginning to think that they are going the way of the dinosaurs.  Was there some Big Boom that I missed that turned many people into apathetic drones?  

* why do people think that it is OK to show up late for work on a regular basis?
* why do people think that it is OK to demand respect but not give it?
* why do people think that everyone is going to give into their every request?
* why do people think that someone is always going to come along behind them and pick up everything they didn't finish?
* does anyone every go above and beyond the minimum anymore?
* why do people think that it is OK to commit to something and then not follow through?
* why do people just not care?

  3. Very good questions. If you ever get the answers to them, let me know as I've been wondering the same thing lately.
