I used to work retail where if I showed up on time, I was late and had customers waiting outside the store.

Then I finally got a desk job and showed up 5 minutes early the first day and had to wait for 15 minutes outside. I then quickly realized most people don't show up till 8:20-8:45. So that's my start time now.

I'm a millennial and I show up an hour and a half late and I think it's fine. I DO put all my hours in so I leave later but whatever.

Also, just get some serious dirt on your piece of shit boss and you're golden. Fuck em'.

Yeah. So…. Gen X was doing this shit in the 80’s. And I’m sure boomers did it in the 60’s. This isn’t a generational thing-

It’s a human thing.

I have staff that can be ten min late and it's generally okay (although if everyone did it the same day it would be quite bad). I have other staff where it is imperative that they be on time. Due to having some people that absolutely have to be there on time you kind of have to set a standard for the building though. It can cause some significant animosity between workers if some people have to be there on time and others it really doesn't matter. So like many people said it really depends on the job.

Depends on what your job is, if it's shift based timing is an issue. 9-5? As long as everything gets done and people xan reach you who gives a fuck

If you have a meeting first thing, don't.

Showing up just as the ferry left really was a great conversation starter with the guy who was on shift

There is nothing that can happen at my job that, if not done quickly, will have a real negative impact on a human being. This does not stop my coworkers from acting like the sky is falling if something is delayed by a few days.

My boss can complain to the bus company

You want everything finished before clock out and no overtime then this is how its done.

Where I was working, we had a 15minute sitrep every day preshift so the outgoing shifts had to wait on us to finish it. No roll calls but our teams were small enough not to need it. Sometimes one of us would show up just as the sitrep was done and we lost no time for them
