Talk the talk...

There are those who shy away from being accountable, there are those who publicly take the blame...and there are those who take the blame but really live up to the consequence.

Of the three, I most despise the 2nd ones. Those are the people who someone get the glory for being "honest" and "never shy to admit mistake" but hardly do they ever get called on the error. It's almost like they know the code - that those who admit to their errors in a public forum will bring them glory. But do they ever suffer the consequence?

A buddy of mine recently really talked the talk...and walked the walk. He stood up...took the blame for his entire department's recent debaucle. And just the other date, he found his own position in the internal job posting. So much for loyalty...

Mood: amazed
