How seriously do you treat punctuality?

My personal view is "Rather early than on time. If I am on time, I am already too late."

I'm always early. I get really irritated with people who are consistently late, it's just bad planning and rude.

Can't stand lateness.
Height of bad manners especially from those who do it regularly.
I like to be early to look for exits & plot my escape.

If I’m by myself I’m on time or early. I don’t like when I run late.
I am always early. It is proper etiquette. Everyone else in my family was always late. It was a running joke. I wasn't though. They used to say we are an ------- so we are always late. I was horrified. Better an hour early than ever late.

@PoetryNEmotion Same here... its actually a pet peeve of mine.

Try to be punctual and communicative if a problem arises with meeting someone, but if they’re more than a minute late then I leave 😂

@iMystery 😄 I was more relaxed when go to work. If work at 7am, I can arrive 7.10 and be okay. US I already got talk with supervisor twice.

I mean I like to be punctual, but world hunger and needless wars kinda occupy my mind more. 🤔

@Peaceful why you worry about it
Peaceful · F
@midnightsun someone has to. I think it is way more important than what time you show up to meet someone. And still I'm always always a bit early. Why? Respect.

To work I’m early, but don’t walk in to there until the last 2 minutes. Then I punch in, usually a minute early. Any other affair I’m usually on time or late. When I have to go I’m usually late to church

depends what the occasion is
I am always late, by around 10 minutes. One time i was going to a friends house and i was on time and she wasn't ready....because shd was expecting me to come late.

@iMystery and being 10 minutes late meant i was on the train behind that of the 7/7 bombers so who knows 🤷🏽‍♀️

Also my cuz was late for work in the North Tower on 9/11 - he saw the plane hit!

@InOtterWords 😩 ok... maybe... just MAYBE... being occasionally late does have coincidental advantages lol
