Time for a Life Change --DeWese

3) No rumormongering. Or, is it 'rumormongreling.' Aren't mongrels dogs? (Oh well, Attila the Editor will fix it.) In other words, don't denigrate your worthless. sleaze-ball competitors. Always, always, take the High Road.

4) Don't blow delivery dates and deadlines. Deadlines are real and must be met because, believe it or not, the world doesn't move to your beat. A bad hair day is no excuse for missing a deadline. Work late to get the job done if necessary.
