Flakes, of course, are folks who don't follow through on what they say they're gonna do, whether it be to meet up with you for a "date" or [ fill in the blank ].
Flakiness (it seems to me!) used to be ... occasional in my life. It would happen now and then. Often rescheduling would happen and the one I'm re-scheduling with will show up. Or whatever the agreement was. (A person cannot be called a "flake" simply because they must reschedule a get-together. That happens. Stuff happens. Flakes are those who re-schedule a rescheduled get-together, and then want to talk about a third re-scheduling. Naturally I'm very suspicious at that point!)
Now it seems more commonly than not folks don't follow through with what they say they're gonna do, whatever it is, whether in my "personal" or "professional" life.
Am I alone here? Just WTF is going on here? It can't just be me!
