Does Anyone Keep their "Word" Anymore?

I have seen that several times on this board. Does that mean like you agree or what?

Damn... you are old.

Still breathin' over here bro. Posted yesterday for the first time in a while. I'll bump the thread so you can read it.

Hope things are good for you my friend.

Not that good. Me and the ole lady went down on my chopper that I had only three months. And it is taking forever for them to fix it. I need to ride before I stress out if you know what I mean.

Looks like I'm not the only one disgusted with the happenings. My biggest beef is incompetence.

I try to keep my word. The only time I don't is when the person I gave my word to doesn't hold up there end of the bargain, thus making our verbal contract null and void.

Cool thread. These days, it seems that having a conscience can be a liability. You see the liars, cheaters and backstabbers getting ahead faster, and they're not losing any sleep over it. What's even worse is if they're caught, they won't admit to doing anything wrong - they say something like "I didn't lie, you misunderstood me..." (nothing's EVER their fault!)

Even so, I still keep my word, it's how I was raised. My father used to say "a person is no better than his or her word" or something like that. I think not keeping one's word may get them something in the short term, but in the long term, it'll come back to haunt them.
