It seems to me that when someone takes on a responsibility to others it is up to them to see it through. There are those who will make one attempt at keeping that promise then walk away whether the job is done or not.

I was taught from an early age that if I commit to doing something, it is my personal responsibility to complete it no matter how difficult or time consuming the task. In my house, you make the mess, you clean it up right away.

Excuses are trash. Take responsibility like an adult.
