Bark Bark!
I am a pretty honest person. At least I like to think so. I mean... I am not one hundred percent honest, but I try my best NOT to lie. If I say "Yes, I'll do something", if I forget, or if something comes up, I let whoever I made the promise to know. i don't want to leave them hanging, you know, cause then it looks bad on me.
I mention this because it seems to be a recurring thing for me. People say "I did this", or "I will do this", and come to find out... Nope. It's either put off, forgotten, or just flat out not done.
Example: At work (I work at a gas station), one coworker often says "Yes, I changed the trash", and when I check, come to find out... He didn't, and I have to clean up after him. Loan someone money, I'm told "I'll pay it back in a few days", and come to find out that "a few days" is two weeks later. Thing is; transparency is appreciated. "No, I didn't do it", or "Sorry, I forgot", "Sorry, something came up". It might not be what I am looking for, but it is better than just leaving me in the dark.
I don't mean to sound like a dick or anything, cause I'm not "that guy", I just like to know what is going on with things like that, and being left in the dark makes it feel like I'm being left in the dark for whatever reason, or the other person is being dishonest. So... At this point I'm trying to limit the level of that, and... Yeah. I'm sure you get it.
Anyway, just a bit of venting, really. Nothing really worth looking over, but reading is appreciated, I guess?

Wish you that things will get better for you and that you will get to meet more honest people. =3
