20+ Jokes About Being Late That Will Drive Punctual People Nuts

Like my grandfather used to say, “If you’re not 10 minutes early, you’re late.” I had punctuality engrained in me from an early age. So much so that I will have a full blown panic attack if I even think I’m going to be late for something. While this has helped me with jobs and deadlines, it did not prepare me for dealing with the other 98% of people I’d meet who for whatever reason simply cannot show up on time for anything. I think we all have at least one friend we have to tell dinner starts at 7 when it actually starts at 8, just so they’ll show up only a little late. Okay, thanks for reading my rant. Oh, and if you’re one of these unapologetically late people, please, for the love of god, get your f*cking sh*t together.

Sorry I was late for work. A guy at 7-11 put 23 creams in his coffee and I had to watch him put each one in.
