Arriving late shows irresponsibility and self-centeredness..
In say Latin America, this idea is extremely common, so some people from these countries may not even think twice about arriving to an event later than the scheduled time..
Zero minutes is an acceptable time to be late. If you are late you are saying that someone else's time isn’t as important as yours..
So don’t be late at all, it isn’t fashionable and is unforgivable, and they’ll probably start without you anyway. .
I have no patience for habitually late people, and as I get older and the amount of time left to me dwindles, I will not tolerate it .
I am always early - Setting a trend .
