Paul Carter. How dare you.

Carter pulled out at the last minute due to a 're-arranged family event'. However, a message from his personal assistant seemed a less than courteous way to do this. Mark Nottingham's blog
An unnecessarily gentle understatement there Mark. Try as I might, I cannot think of a pressing PRE-arranged family event that can be RE-arranged at a day's notice. Sounds very much like a 'dog ate my homework' excuse.

• This meeting had been painstakingly and specifically arranged for Paul Carter's convenience, long in advance.
• KIACC double-checked Carter's attendance with his office. Several times.
• Then he pulls out, the day before.

That's shabby.

The cry went up (in mitigation) that Paul Carter has a 'Private Life'. And he has a Salary, and we are his Employers.

Paul Carter: selfish, slippery, salaried and contactable.
