RPR Golf Inc. is a U$.$S$.-$based company that builds top$-$ranked golf courses in many different parts of the world. Paul Smith, the Director of Marketing for RPR$,$ has travelled to Chile for a meeting with a local developer that has expressed a keen interest in having a course built. After arriving at the office of the Chilean company at the agreed upon meeting time, Paul was greeted by a receptionist and asked to take a seat. Mr$.$ Gonzalez, the person he was supposed to meet, was partially visible in an office behind the receptionist, and over the next $45$ minutes he waited in frustration while Mr$.$

Gonzalez made and took phone calls, worked quietly at his desk, and summoned the receptionist for assistance with several tasks. Finally, the RPR Director of Marketing was invited into Mr$.$ Gonzalez's office but at that stage he was feeling disrespected. Paul had travelled a great distance for the meeting, and, from his perspective, Mr$.$ Gonzalez obviously did not consider the meeting important or he would have greeted him at the door when he arrived and would have started the meeting on time. What is most likely going on in this situation?
