Christ, where did 2013 come from? I feel like I am already behind.
Honest, I didn’t plan on this to work out this way but that 80% thing just keeps comin’ around and round…. Exactly 2 years ago today I wrote this post—- When did 80% become good enough? Now I feel like some scary Nostradamus or something.
Maybe I am just naive in my expectations. I get disappointed in that respect almost daily.
One of the problems with this country is lowered expectations. I deal with it everyday with employees and vendors. 80% effort seems to be enough to get by
I have a proprietary maxim called the 80% Rule. It peeves me no end. Seems to me we (collectively) have learned to accept less than stellar products and services as the norm. I sent this to a guy that sold me a Colts pistol last year that fell far short of his promises.
Folks, tell me something. When did we turn into a nation where an 80% effort is good enough? When did an 80% effort become acceptable? I emailed this to Georgia Jeffrey when he took offense to my being ‘so particular’:
