Default People who bum stuff.....

One of the most aggravating thing I go thru in any job I've ever had is the people around me who never come prepared to work. They never have a pen, a cigarette, a snack or a few bucks. It annoys the crap out of me.

Are you the kind of person who bums stuff as you go along or do you actually PREPARE for what you will need for your day???

I know my youngest son is one who bums all day from friends. He never has pencil or paper...it's just the way he is. My brother is the very same way. I think some people are just born like that.

I don´t know what it is. But I am highly disorganized, yet few people have seen me without at least one pen and paper on me. There is not much of importance I ever have forgotten.

But on the select few occasions that I am around people who forget everything, I tended to get annoyed.

I come totally prepared...and people bum from me "Can I borrow a dollar for the pop machine" or "Can you lend me five for the lunch wagon?" Now I just usually bring my Debit card and enough for a coffee and maybe a refill...so far I've been lucky...no Bank Machine at work...or I'd be up the creek again!

I'm organized to a fault! I never forget stuff or come unprepared. I'm the person who everyone comes to when they need an asprin, button or a quarter. What I don't have in my purse or desk drawer...I have in my glove compartment.

I said my son was disorganized....but my daughter is the opposite. She is just like me. She always has her ducks in a row and doesn't mess up.

I always had what i needed when going to work or even when i was in school. very seldome did i bum anything off anyone. people bum off me and it does get annoying. especially when it's smokes. they;re so darn expensive now that it hurts to hand a few out!

I think some people do it on purpose. they take advantage of your kindness and just know that they don't have to worry about anything because you'll be there to supply them with it.

I have learned to say no, sorry, i'm all out now.

If it's someone that smokes and I know usually has smokes, I'll give them one. If they never have any....screw off go buy your own.

I usuall come pretty prepared no matter where I go. Rarely is there an instance when I have to beg or borrow but I'm sure I have once or twice in my time.
