So... I feel like a total dick for saying this, but 5 out of 7 of my last mentorship sessions have no-showed or cancelled within 10 minutes of their appointments in the past week. Only one person out of those has provided any reasonable reason. I'm really sorry - if this keeps up much longer I am not going to be able to continue the service.

If you aren't respectful of my time, please, please be respectful of the time of others who help you along your career journey. I miss every single Sunday afternoon I could spend with my family for nothing but occasional tips. Some folks wait months for these appointments.

@hacks4pancakes I recently had someone cancel on me for a mentorship at the last minute and I was pissed, but I let her reschedule and she canceled again but her excuse was that she was "too depressed". I felt bad about being pissed the first time.
