And I always underestimate how long something is going to take. I don't like this about myself. I understand that me showing up late is seen as a sign of disrespect by people and it is! It is disrespectful. I feel terrible about that because I really respect the people I work with and I value them tremendously.
我總是低估某件事情需要花費的時間,也對這樣的自己感到不滿意。我知道遲到是對他人不尊重的表現,而且確實是這樣!這是不得體的。我感到很糟糕,因為我真的很尊敬跟我共事的人,也非常重視他們。
