Liveandletsfly.com reported A United Airlines Pilot Lands 10 Month Jail Sentence In Scotland For Violating Blood Alcohol Limits
Not sure what it is about the whiskey in Scotland....
The pilot, 63-year-old Glendon Gulliver, was “not used” to hard liquor and reportedly stumbled out of a bar in Glasgow the night before he was set to transport 166 passengers and 11 crewmembers from Glasgow to Newark
A concerned citizen tweeted Glasgow Airport:
Hi. A United Airlines pilot just walked out of a pub in Glasgow and fell over drunk about 21:00. Can he be breathalysed before the flight to New York on Saturday morning?
Tweeted?
Really?
177 souls might DIE and you send a tweet?
What a twattering twit! Call the Donald Ducking police next time.
Sigh.................
What does a schnockered pilot, who is now a jailbird, have to do with your business?
More than you think.
It is usually assumed, easily lost and gawrsh darn near impossible to regain.
I am talking about TRUST
think about it...
- You buy a product and you trust that it will work
- You read a review and you trust it is legit
- You take advice and you trust it helps you
- You trust the dentist with all those sharp objects in your mouth
Your children trust you. Your spouse or pelvic-affiliate trusts you. Your clients trust you.
But one little slip-up, one little indiscretion, no matter how small can irreversibly RUIN that trust.
And when the trust is gone or ruined, you never get back to that level of 100% trust.
No matter how hard you try.
Even if you can salvage the marriage after an... ahem... tiny indiscretion, your spouse will NEVER have the same amount of trust in you they did before the indiscretion.
Same with your clients.
- Late deliveries
- Out of stock items
- Smarmy employees
- Confusing offers
- Products that don't work as advertised.
Just a few of the things that will ruin the trust you have with clients and patients.
Oh, and if someone says to you "
Trust me".
Don't.
Unfortunately, sage advice.
Trust will make your business and you successful.
Ask yourself honestly, "Is what I am selling worthy of people's trust?"
- If yes? Fantastic, put the peddle to the metal and sell as much as you can. You have a moral obligation to sell as much as possible to help your clients.
- If no? Stop selling it
- If you waivered, waffled. hemmed and hawed? See #2 above.
I firmly, unequivocally, unwaveringly and without hesitation KNOW that my products (Ultimate Client Experience, Carpet Cleaning, Newsletter Blueprint, Oriental Rug Care, The DSNi Inner Circle and Alliance) will benefit people.
I have a moral obligation to sell as much coaching, consulting and carpet cleaning as I possibly can so as to help as many people I can.
I believe my members and clients trust me.
Do you have the same belief?
