This one’s my favorite, and it sounds infuriating.

Richmond VA has a serious weirdness about dropping chicken bones on the sidewalk. It’s to the point that the mods for the city’s subredddit have started deleting/blocking people posting pictures of them. We also have trashed so many electric scooters that Lime or Bird or...whatever, one of the companies decided that…

This probably goes for any city, not just my beloved Toronto, but people who just SUDDENLY STOP while walking. Gotta stop to look at a text? Cool, maybe just “pull over” off to the side? I hate nearly walking into someone and getting a sour look from them when THEY’RE the one who stopped dead on a busy street.

Additiona…

My old company did something similar by setting all meeting 30 minutes before lunch, in the break room.  It would have been great, except every meeting ended up lasting an hour and a half, locking everyone out of the breakroom until it was done.

IME it’s that the presenter or organizer is late.

I also suffer from chronic optimism and loss of motor skills/rational decision making when rushed. Getting to work on time is a constant battle because I can’t wake up in the morning (likely biological night owl).

My husband is chronically late. If he’s supposed to be somewhere at 8, i tell him he has to be there at 7:30. This is the biggest sticking point of our marriage. If he needs to pick the kids up because I’m stuck at the office, he leaves about 20 minutes later than he should, then ends up stuck in traffic (suprise,…

This is amazing and I relate to a lot of it, thank you!

My boss refuses to set a start time for us. He says we are all adults, and he just expects us to get our work done.

I’m sure it works out just fine for you! You’ve missed the annoying small talk while a room full of people are forced to awkwardly kill time, waiting for you.

No, it’s because we are waiting for the late people.

Because we’re waiting and waiting and waiting...

In my case I find that everything generally works out just fine. If i’m 5-15 minutes late I’ve only missed the small talk. That brings up the question, why do meetings and events always start late? Is it because you need to wait on the late people or because the people who show up on time don’t start on time?

I’ll try to start being on time using some of these tips/tricks. Until then i’m 100% stealing that one from you

When I’m late, I just walk into the meeting and say “I apologize that you all got here early. Now let’s begin.”

Simple rule: Never burn bridges. Ever. You never know.

Exactly my intent. And on the off chance there are still some optimistic folks out there who are just planning for their mortgage payment, I hope to set them on the right path! 

I’ve recently become obsessed with whipping my cottage cheese. Mix it up with salsa or a ranch packet and boom... delicious dip with low/no fat and lots of protein brotein!

In Houston there’s a bar called HandleBar Houston on Washington Ave. The front of the bar looks like your typical modern bar but go to the back past the restrooms and open the unmarked door... Boom, Magnum PI themed bar.

Come on guys you know he has to go with a SRT8 Jeep Grand Cherokee. If you go with a regular SRT it will only run you $70,000 or you can upgrade to the trackhawk with 707 horsepower. 0-60 in 3.5 seconds for a 5000 lbs SUV. It will hold two car seats, a dog, groceries and you never have to worry about being late ever…
