People.

I hate mistreating people the same way they mistreat me. I promised myself I would never do that. You are always late to our meetings? That is fine, you are a flake, I am not. You cannot keep your word? That is fine, you are not man enough, I am. I am not on top of your priorities? That is fine, you are still on top of mine because you mean a lot to me.

I treat people with my manners, not theirs. It is the right thing to do, but it sucks!
