No waiting!
In reaction to the quote about waiting, I would just like to start by saying that we live in a world where everything is instant. Our country is filled with “instant oil changes”, faster and faster internet connections, faster mailing solutions (fed-ex), e-mail (replacement of traditional mail), faster travel options (faster jets), microwaves, fast food (drive-thru), and many other things that make our lives easier by making us wait less and less. People have come to expect faster service and solutions, and less wait time. To every American, “time is money”, so time lost is money lost. They believe they have to do stuff constantly in order to be successful, or to get ahead (or not to get left behind). They are in a constant rat race to get ahead of the next guy in line.
