Big Salad Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I show up early and usually first one there at most things 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Rather be half an hour early than a minute late. I have a daughter and a wife that believe time is merely a guideline so this causes a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC_Hitz Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I'm a punctual person. In Bulgaria, time is a western conspiracy. If someone says to meet them at 9pm you'll be waiting til 9.45 at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted August 27, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) My wife goes by "Vince Lombardi time" which I'm not compatible with. Pretty punctual though. Being chronically late is disrespectful. Edited August 27, 2021 by Tegis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Today I want us all to leave the house at 10. I will be ready to go for 9ish. My grandson will be ready, my daughter will be ready for 10.30. When I was younger it drove me **** mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted August 27, 2021 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2021 I'm generally early, my missus and daughter, generally not. I have adapted whenever we are going somewhere and just tell them an earlier time that we are leaving so they are ready for what I consider to be on time. That way I don't get angry and we don't have an argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my daughter had a place of her own I sliced an hour off the time christmas dinner would be ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted August 27, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2021 I'm normally pretty punctual but strangely I always find myself driving like a lunatic desperate to get a car park space then get to Villa Park before kick off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 if its work then im late, everything else is early best thing about living on the continent, you can come to work at 8.15am and be one of the first there, in my old job id have had 2 meetings by that time, in 2 and a half years i've never had a meeting before 9am, they've even tried to make it company policy no meetings before 9am or after 4pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I used to have a mate that was always infuriatingly late, agreed to meet him in the pub at 4:30pm, he kept on saying that he was running late, got to 6pm and he still wasn't there, I messaged him and said I was going home to have a few pints in my local instead, he got really pissed off with me saying that "I'd" wasted his time and that he was on the bus now. I honestly couldn't get my breath the word removed was 90 minutes late, I'd already had about 4 pints and couldn't be bothered to wait any longer for him, I was the bad guy in that scenario for some reason, if the **** would have got there on time as agreed there wouldn't have been any problem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
