It seems were all sticklers for being on time.  I hate being late, even if it's beyond my contyrol, I still feel I did not plan properly.

I also hate people who can't keep appointments with me on time.watch2.gif

I too hate being late, but sometimes
its beyond my control. However, I
do call ahead just to let people at work
that I'll be a few minutes behind.

Being late drives me crazy, especially when it is beyond my control (traffic etc.)

My old boss used to tell me, "Griff, 5 minutes early is 10 minutes late" :D  He was a retired Lt. Col., USAF and he really went nuts when someone was late.

Cheers,
Griff

I was brought up  with the philosophy that being punctual is a way to show respect.  I'm not taking any chances, so always make sure I have a dependable timepiece at hand!subtlelaugh.gif

Now things would go really well if my wife shared the same sentiments about being punctual.....................coyote2.gif

I am in the same boat. Whenever I am going somewhere I can get myself and the kids there on time. If my wife is involved we are a hour hour late!!! Drives me nuts even after 14 years of marriage.crap.gif
