*sigh*
I was chided this morning, again, for my mistakes - Twice in fact.
First was for leaving the branch, while leaving my equipment unattended - I went to take a break. Probably should have learnt by now; Having lost my battery last week, and they inculcated the same thing in the army.
Next was for failing to update the office of my appointments today - I overlooked to update on the offices' copy for a reschedule made on Friday.
My mistake, yesterday, was failing to inform Raymond, another colleague, of an appointment that I've rescheduled to him last Friday. I left him a message asking him to call me back to get the information. Needless to say, it didn't happen, and the appointment was not fulfilled - I should have remembered to follow up. I called to apologize to the customer; thank goodness he wasn't too upset about it.
In light of recent events, my only defense is that it all started from the battery incident last Thursday. My mind was too fixated on finding a solution, and the battery incident became the focal point of all my distractions. Not a very strong argument one may criticize, but I have no other explanation. I have a tendency to let my distractions run on to following events. My only hope is to break from this vicious trend as soon as possible - This bad streak is not good for the track record.
