Scheduling Enthusiasts Gifts

'I'm afraid we had to cancel the 'perfect planning' seminar, but the time we got around to booking the hotel was full and the speaker hoped to use died in 1967...'

Am I sleeping? Is this a dream? I am the Ghost of Christmas Past! Yeah, right. It's November. Obviously. Scheduling conflict. I'm backed up with cheapskates this year. Not buying it. This is just a bad dream. Work with me here. I'm getting an early start!

'Hmmm... right, Wednesday, I've got 10:00 available...' - '...or I could reschedule my submissive at 11:00... yeah...' - 'Yeah... it's fine... no... he'll take it like a good little worm... ha, ha... okay... bye!'

Colour Version: Living by the Clock

'Mr. McCoy has been expecting you. If you'll have a seat, he should be with you within the next 6 hours.'

"Can that be right?"

'Thanks for coming to this 12.01 appointment, but I'm afraid my 12.02 has now arrived.'

'Duly noted. Now, shall we move on or does anyone else feel the need to have a conniption?'

Time Clock

Bathroom shelf full of clocks and pills.

Workaholics Anonymous - Hourly General Meeting

"Yay, we have an agenda for today's meeting!"

"I haven't had smouldering, passionate sex for a while....could you put it in the diary for next week!"

"You have a major fiasco at 10:30, followed by a shocking scandal at 2:15."

"Gotta go. My ten o'clock is here."

"Your three o'clock moved to two o'clock, your two o'clock moved to one o'clock, and your one o'clock said you're fired."

"This is terrible, Ms. Jenkins! The general manager's surprise visit is going to ruin my scheduled half hour of spontaneous time!"

"I, for one, do not enjoy these BYO agenda meetings."

"If there's no further old business, we'll move along to new business."

If I move Jen's ortho to Friday, it conflicts with Sam's clarinet, but I can't move that to Monday because Tina has soccer! Ugh, how do I line this thing up? Rubik's Calendar.

"I found another great book about living with less stuff."

Life Tetris

'Look - forget I asked if you were free any evenings...'

White Rabbit leaving a 'Time Management Seminar.'

'Katie, I won't be coming in Thursday, so reschedule all of today's appointments for then.'

'I've got a tight schedule.'

"It's from our 'Time Management' trainer. He's double booked and can't come!"

"But don't bother making up a schedule for all those projects. I've got all the time in the world now."

"I'd love to meet up, but my calendar is a jam-packed with squares and sequential numbers."

Calendar; 'Point of no return.'

Great coaching is about understanding your coachee's agenda..

Realistic Timetable

Why do I always get stuck behind a slow driver when I'm already late?

'My instincts and intuitions are on opposing sides on this schedule.'
