Getting There Early

Posted on Tuesday, December 16, 2008 by Frank Roche

I am a believer in punctuality though it makes me very lonely.
- E. V. Lucas

I’m an early riser. There’s nothing to be proud about that. Some people get up early; some people like to work late.

I’m also early. I don’t get to appointments late. Never have; never will. And to me, it’s a distinction for me when I’m looking for good people to work with. Being punctual is about caring about what others think and how the business runs. I value it. Although, as E.V. Lucas says, it can sometimes be a lonely pursuit. (But not at our shop. We are bright an chipper all day.)

    You are the master at squeezing the essence out of a thought. Nice.
