I agree that a lot of standards seem to be lowered these days, and a lot of people call their "best" what they are willing to do, when what they are capable of doing is much "better" if they really tried harder. And in a job interview situation, what good is your best if someone else's best is better!? Oh boy. Now I'm confused.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660185655369301982noreply@blogger.com
