This week, the Prime Minister of South Korea, Lee Hae-chan stepped down from his duties. According to reports, instead of trying to resolve a railway strike, Prime Minister Lee decided to go golfing. The government and the public became so furious with their leader that Lee resigned from his duties as Prime Minister today.

Now you might ask yourself, did Prime Minister Lee really do something that bad that he should have to resign? I mean all he did was go golfing, right? This issue could have been resolved with the simple purchase of a cell phone or a Blackberry. Even better, Prime Minister Lee could have invited the Railroad Union head to play with him to avoid conflict or confusion.

So here is a lesson to us all as we head out to the golf course knowing that our discontented spouse is at home frustrated that we are playing golf one more time this week: Keep your phone on you and make sure that you are in contact in case chaos transpires.
