Do you ever post anything that has context of any sort?

I always show up at least 1 hour late for any social function. I hate being one of the early arrivers.

This is a completely assinine response.

In my lengthy stay on this festering society, I have waited for:

Doctors
Dentists
Specialists (medical)
Lawyers
Pre-ordered Take-out food

Why, when these asshats KNOW you have a time they have committed to, do they screw you around ?

They are stealing your life bit-by-bit.


peace

I don't like to be late or early.
The only places I can think I will show up early for is an auction or the airport.

In general, if you are consistently late this is telling the other person you don't care about their time. Even I can be late though and I'm a compulsive punctual.

This is probably a faux paus however I noticed something this last week.

My maternal grandmother passed away and we held the wake and funeral.

My mother was severely late to both. We had to wait to start the funeral for her to finally get there.

I love my mother but how can you be late to your own mothers funeral?

Not sure why people do it.

I try to time things such that I get there exactly on time, this ends up causing me to be a little late normally. If I must be there on time (Ex. job interview) then I will get there early. I did miss a flight once for a job interview and ended up 2 hours late to the interview after they rescheduled it grin But what the hell were they thinking? having me wake up at 6am to catch an early flight and do a 6 hour+ long interview - How was I supposed to do well on an interview with no sleep? stupid.

I don't really care about time.

I used to punch a clock for years. I'm free from that bondage.

If I made a video about it, it would look like this...

I am always too early. I hate waiting on people if I make an appointment with them and they don't arrive on time.

In my experience the worst group is politicians. Being late is all just part of the game.

To me it's doctors. They are horrible about keeping on time. I have a few doctor friends and professionally and personally they are horrible about being on time. I hate being late.

People who arrive very early are just as bad. We aren't ready for you yet.

If you are more than 5 minutes early, stop a block away and sit in the car until it's time.
