Sometimes when you are inconvenienced, it is best to push back against frustration. There may be serendipity lurking as you resort to damage control.
Recently, I had someone drop me off on the north campus of the University of Georgia, thinking that more efficient than trying to find a parking space and adding to the pollution with my car.
Had someone standing by to come pick me up when my meeting was over, but when that time came, my friend was going into a meeting and forecast that it would be an hour before he could come to the rescue.
