I can't remember the last time I was late for work.  I'm generally a couple of hours earlier than when I have to be here.  Love the overtime!!
Have a wonderful day!

I did home health for a few years and I only had to call in when I got to a patient's house.

I leave early whenever I have to be somewhere by a certain time, and usually arrive early. It is rare for me to be late.

I don't remember ever being late for work.  Occasionally I will be a little late for a social gathering though.

VERY rarely, and usually it is because of traffic. Like an accident or something happened after I already left. Sometimes weather (snow), but I usually plan a buffer for it. I really really hate being late for anything though. I think it's rude. (Sometimes unavoidable, though)

I am rarely late unless I am waiting on one of my grown sons when my husband was alive he ALWAYS made us late. I prefer just going by myself then I go when I want - when I am supposed to.

I was never late for work unless something happened, like heavy, heavy traffic, a train, or a wreck I was in.

For other things, I'm getting worse than I used to be about being on time.  :-\

Methinks that's one of the things we worry too much about.

You know I am about 2 minutes late everyday for some reason.  But I don't take all then in between coffee breaks some folks take.

I am never late for work because my hours are not set in stone at either job. I come and leave as I please as long as I get my work done on time. I am always two minutes early to a meeting according to the clock on my computer (that synchronizes with everyone in the corporation). Getting to a meeting earlier than two minutes wastes time as I do not need to engage in small talk while at work. I generally show up a few minutes late for picking people up from the airport. I do this on purpose because the general population feels that their time is much more important than mine and build in a five to ten minute window into the time that they really need to be picked up at. I am never late for dinner or cocktail hour because I can begin without others while taking care of phone calls, texts and e-mails.
