“I visited your blog. Recipricate the visit {URL}”<\/p>\n
“CD wants you to read the blog post {URL}”<\/p>\n
Believe it or not, these rude requests have recently entered my blog comment and email box. Do they really think it will result in me clicking on their link? I certainly didn’t, and I deleted their comment\/email as well.<\/p>\n
It really annoys me when people are rude, but more so when people expect me to react because they have chosen to do something.<\/p>\n
So what if you have read my blog post? That doesn’t mean I automatically have an interest in what you blog about, yet a number of people have this expectation; even worse are those associates\/friends who expect me to read their blog regularly just because I know them, even if there is no sign they have EVER read any of my blog posts!<\/p>\n
It’s like those people (not clients)\u00a0who get annoyed because I don’t return their phone call straight away – it may suit them to call during the day but I have a business to run!<\/p>\n
Not a very constructive blog post I admit, but there is some relief to vent about rudeness and expectations! Of course, we can all take the message that a polite request<\/a> is much more likely to get someone to do what you want (in this case, read your blog post!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" “I visited your blog.
