My family think I have some form of mental illness as I go to work earlier than I should do or for any other appointments. An incident at work a while back where an agency class 1 driver due to things not going to plan was running late and after getting him loaded up the driver then got the prayer mat out and started praying for another 20 minutes making the load even more late to get to the hub and no one had the bolox to tell him to stop fekin about and get moving like WILF said they have bought into this madness especially pandering to Muslims. I'm the same always really early for everything, work , appointments etc.. Always the running joke that I will be early to my own funeral 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a bit like using dyslexia as an excuse for spelling mistakes. There is technology available these days to help people that suffer with these conditions have a more equal opportunity. Within reason it’s not much of an excuse. The truth is if she was either exceptionally skilled or hard working an employer would likely look past her ‘disability’. Covid changed the world for the better in this respect imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t believe you, I am an early bird but shit does sometimes happen was two hours late last year after a bloke lost his life on a motorbike right in front of me but a phone call to the person expecting me and all was fine but to make a statement like that is ludicrous Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,220 Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Late is good depending on the situation,it creates anxiety leading to a despairing gratitude when you eventually show up ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
