high expectations

today i played in a beach vball tourney with friends and what happened today made me realize that i have high expectations of other people and many of them don't seem to meet them. oftentimes they've even disappointed me.

its things like, being late for something, for example. i expect ANYONE, not just friends of mine, to call me if they're going to be late. this morning, i got to the tourney before 8 am. the rest of the team except for 2 people (B and K) got there on time (8:15 am). B and K didn't get there until 9 am!

here we are, 2/3 of the team warming up, getting ready to play and in comes those 2 sauntering in. did they apologize? nope. we called and called them on their cellphones and they didn't pick up. why didn't they just call to let us know that they were on the way? better yet, why didn't they just GET UP IN TIME so that they would make it to the beach ON TIME?

i wouldn't be this upset if it was league or drop-in or what-not. but for a TOURNEY, you'd think your teammates would get there on time, right? it just shows they don't have the respect for other people on the team, nor the consideration.
