The "TME" category

.. So there's this certain category of people... that I've just titled the "TME" category... i.e., the "Too Many Excuses" category of people...
They come in all shapes and sizes..and they all "excuse" about different sorts of things...
.. Some about why they didn't finish their work in time... some about why they didn't call when they promised... some why they didn't show up... some why they don't know what they are supposed to.. and the list goes on..

The common factor.. for all these people.. is that their excuses starting streaming out before you ask your question.. or even if you had NO intention of holding any sort of interrogation !!
I don't know what it is... Its definitely some sort of "defense" mechanism that kicks in automatically.. without need for much provocation (is dat a word ?! me-englis-sux)

I'm not commenting about whether their excuses are genuine or not... they might be genuine.. but in most cases, these people end up sounding quite pathetic...

I gotta make sure .. I don unsuspectingly fall into this category.. EVER !!
