The older I get the less patience I seem to have with other people's lack of organization, predictability, efficiency, reliability, etc., especially if it wastes any of my time. I was met with a situation recently where I was dealing with someone with poor organization that mucked up my (real or perceived) time-frame repeatedly. I permanently exited the situation - I cannot deal with this.
When I was younger, I was a lot more apt to sling insults at someone for wasting my time on account of being flighty or disorganized but I could tolerate a lot more. Now, I just walk as soon as it is clear that the person I am dealing with doesn't care or isn't likely to do things differently.
Does anyone else struggle with this sort of thing - a nearly violent need for predictability, order, efficiency, reliability, etc?
