Are you doing That not only detracts from an apology when we do have something to be sorry for, but it can be seen as it right? submission, especially in our professional lives. The classic example is at a social gathering or Sayingyg sorry y networking event . If you try to infi ltrate a group by saying, “sorry to interrupt” , the fi rst thing you have told people is that you are apologetic and interrupting . Likewise, people responding to emails with “sorry for the delay in getting back to you” are highlighting the fact there was a delay. Instead, start by thanking the person for allowing you the time to come back to them. In terms of saying sorry when you have something to apologise for, it is better to do it succinctly . You can tell a sincere apology by the fact that it is short and to the point. Qualifying an apology generally means the apologiser does not fully mean it. Preferably, the apology should be face to face ; if that is not possible, then do it over the phone. If you have really annoyed someone and done the initial apology face-to-face or over the phone, it is fi ne to follow up with something more expansive in writing.

The US rapper delighted many core fans with a 100-minute set on the Pyramid Stage that included big hits and new material, but did little to win over those festival-goers who came along out of curiosity. Wearing blue denim with a white splat- tered paint effect, West spent most of the set alone on a bare stage under a ceiling of hundreds of powerful spot lights, although he took a trip above the stage in a crane for “Touch the Sky”. “Thank you all for coming out tonight, thank you for coming to see me,” he said in a rare moment of engage- ment with the crowd. West’s performance opened with “Stronger” and closed with “Gold Digger”, and included a guest appearance by Justin Vernon of folk band Bon Iver, who lurked in the shadows on the edge of the stage as the rapper strode around. At one point, West sang part of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”-a bold move before declar- ing: “You are watching the greatest living rock star on the planet!” The decision to give West the coveted Saturday night Kanye West performs on The Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival, at Worthy Farm in Somerset, England, Saturday.—AP photos slot caused controversy among fans of the festival, which is better known for its rock and folk music, and 135,000 peo- ple signed a petition to get him dropped.
