I hate it. Drives me mental. Mother in law is the absolute worst person iv ever met, never apologises either. Last week waiting in a restaurant she was 45 minutes late, 11 people waiting to order!

Then just now. Due to take the girls to see Shaun the sheep at 2. Turned up at 2:02.. Aaaarrrgghhhh....

Probably a sign that she doesn't like you
 
I'm always late but I fume if i have to wait about for Others, keep proper huffing and lookin at the time.
 
I am ridiculous at it. Being on time that is. If I am more than a few minutes late home from anywhere, Mrs R frets, cos I am nearly always exactly on time.

I drove back from Middlesborough to Bristol recently. Told her I should be back at 5, and was in at like 2 minutes past.

Not healthy that really.
 

I'm almost always late for social occasions, and sometimes work. I always make trains but usually have to run for them and jump through closing doors Indiana Jones style. I absolutely love it.
 
Being prompt was always drilled into me when I was younger, so I have little tolerance who are simply unable to manager their time.

If you were meant to be on parade at 7am, then you got up early enough to get ready and be on time. There isn't an excuse if you're regularly late.

I know of a gentlemen who was regularly late to work by over an hour each day, therefore they adapted his schedule so he wouldn't be late.

Instead of starting at 8 like everyone else, he could arrive at 10. Guess what... he was still late for work most day for a number of reasons.

Took to a disciplinary and eventually sacked - a decision he appeals and gets to a tribunal. Guess what... he was late for the tribunal.

I will let you surmise what their eventually decision was.
