We all have people in our lives that I will refer to as “slick willies”. Nothing sticks to them. These are people that will NEVER and I mean NEVER take responsibility for their actions. Whether it is at work, at church, at social functions, your family or within your inner circle of friends, there’s always one or two of them lurking around. Whenever you call their hand on something, it is never their fault. They deflect the blame to anyone other than themselves. The more they get by with, the more proficient they become. It is almost like a game or better yet, it is in their job descriptions or just their standard operating procedure.

Sometimes these people are people in your community who should be highly respected or may have positions of leadership so when they pull out their “Slick Willie act,” it really can be a blow to your psyche. If you have these people at your workplace, they are the ones who will not adhere to deadlines, won’t follow instructions and they don’t care if your job is on the line because of what they refuse to do. And when you try to have a conversation with them about it, they just put on their raincoat so whatever you say will slide off and not penetrate and the game continues.

Ok, I feel better and I’m moving on.
