On Time Is Late
Smart saying I heard today on time management:
Early is on time.Having grown up in a very precise environment, I can certainly appreciate this.
On time is late.
Late is unacceptable.
Seriously, from a Yekke (Jewish German background), we were taught to be 15 to 30 minutes early--i.e. on time--for everything.
I remember starting to get "little" reminders to get ready and get out the door well in advance and numerous times before the clock struck.
Fashionably late or any other type is not in the vocabulary and frankly is a complete f*ckin insult. ;-)
