I don't hate being late, but I try to be on time. I don't like arriving too early.

I absolutely hate being late! I usually end up leaving to early for everything and wind up sitting and waiting forever!

Being late is a GIANT pet peeve of mine.

With that said, I am often late... My daughter and I share a house with my sister and her daughter. She works overnights and I work 8-5. I can't leave for work until she gets home, and a lot of the time, she doesn't get home in enough time for me to drive to work and get there by 8.

So annoying.

yes very much so, especially back when I was in school I would always feel awkward walking in on the middle of a class and all eyes draw on you.. it's a very uncomfortable feeling.

I am a person that wants to be half hour early and not even show up on the dot. I like to feel at ease when I arrive it makes the event more pleasureable. but if I am with someone and they make me late I sometimes don't even want to attend because then I don't have a good time.

I do strive to always be on time .. especially for work .. I like to arrive at least 15 minutes early just in case I need to have things set up before I start my shift.

Yes, I hate being late, so I make it a point not to be and if I am with someone I push them so they won't have me late.  the early bird catching the worm. :)

Of course.  I rather be early than late.

Yes, I love to be early and get myself together, for whatever.  I can feel my blood pressure going up when I am late.  Sometime the old adage is not correct, "better late than never."   :dontknow:

I hate being late in school.... In HS people always stare at you, like they don't have anything better to do.... In college you might *bleep* off the professor or miss the early quiz that ends ten minutes in the start of class

I suppose it depends on why I'm late, what I'm late to, how important/big the event is, and who else might be there that I know....

Yes, I hate being late. I would rather sit around and wait. If I have any kind of appointment like a doctors' visit or whatever, I like to be there 30 minutes early. Or if I am meeting someone, I am always there ahead of the other person. I like to be first.  It makes me nervous when I am running behind.

I hate waiting for people to show up to something so I try hard to always be on time so no one is waiting for me. The only down side is I get very stressed when I'm running a little late due to something I can't control.

I do not like being late, if I'm going to be late I just stay home.
