Twelve Job Interview Mistakes.

If you're looking for a job, read this: BusinessWeek's Twelve Job Interview Mistakes.

This one is #6. Arriving Too Early

Everyone knows the downside of getting to an interview late, but arriving more than 10 or 15 minutes before the start of a meeting is just as unacceptable. “It makes the company uncomfortable because they are customer service-oriented. We can't do anything if they see somebody sitting there for 45 minutes because we do so much interviewing that we usually have to stick with the schedule,” says Susan R. Summers, vice-president of human resources for Episcopal Ministries to the Aging, which has care facilities in the Mid-Atlantic. Summers' advice if you get there too early? “Stay out in your car or sit on the bus bench and wait.”

Thankfully, I'm one of those perennially late people.

That's why I never got into comics. I wanted stories to end, and not have to worry about trying to keep up and get the next issue.

They're trying to bring that same formula to the movies - you have to tie everything into the Marvel universe, and have every movie and tv show align. I'd rather see some good stories without having to tie everything in and beat dead horses. Just let those horses be.
