1
00:00:00.450 --> 00:00:02.430
Keep the date you gave a donor,

2
00:00:02.450 --> 00:00:05.070
even when the figure behind it is late.

3
00:00:05.330 --> 00:00:07.710
On October 4, Amina told Morgan

4
00:00:07.730 --> 00:00:09.870
she'd send September's attendance figures

5
00:00:09.890 --> 00:00:11.350
by October 11.

6
00:00:11.650 --> 00:00:13.510
The count isn't verified yet.

7
00:00:13.890 --> 00:00:15.630
Ben, on the program team,

8
00:00:15.650 --> 00:00:16.710
is checking the register

9
00:00:16.730 --> 00:00:19.270
for duplicate entries by October 9.

10
00:00:19.970 --> 00:00:22.110
So two people hold different parts

11
00:00:22.130 --> 00:00:23.110
of this promise.

12
00:00:23.410 --> 00:00:25.430
Ben owns the checked number.

13
00:00:25.490 --> 00:00:27.670
Amina owns the answer to Morgan.

14
00:00:28.130 --> 00:00:30.750
Now suppose Ben's check runs late.

15
00:00:30.850 --> 00:00:32.190
Waiting quietly for him

16
00:00:32.210 --> 00:00:35.070
would let Morgan's date pass in silence.

17
00:00:35.250 --> 00:00:37.230
Amina still owes Morgan a note

18
00:00:37.250 --> 00:00:38.750
by October 11:

19
00:00:38.770 --> 00:00:40.270
what's still being checked,

20
00:00:40.290 --> 00:00:42.790
and a realistic day she'll write again.

21
00:00:42.930 --> 00:00:44.990
The record keeps the original date,

22
00:00:45.010 --> 00:00:46.750
with the new one beside it.

23
00:00:46.850 --> 00:00:48.550
Give the check and the answer

24
00:00:48.610 --> 00:00:51.390
separate owners and separate dates.
