“No matter what happens in the kitchen, never apologize.” - Julia Child
While this may not be the best advice for relationships, it’s our new professional motto. We are finding that by never apologizing (again in professional circumstances), it makes people more forgiving. And you can be unapologetic in a nice way. That’s the route we recommend.
UPDATE: Who knew Julia looked so much like Edna from the Facts of Life?!? It only makes us love her more.

Great advice! I think being quick to apologize make you appear weak…in professional circumstances at least. I’m working on it!

It also makes people unsure whose fault something is.
