I Am Very Punctual Stories of Experiences

I have been married for 32 years. If my wife and I are going somewhere together and we have to be there at a certain time, I can count on either just making it or being late. I always want to leave early so I arrive early. My wife runs...

Perhaps it was the military training. Or perhaps, like Lady Gaga, I was just born this way.

LOL

But to me the greatest virtue is punctuality. I'm always on time.

Always!

I have never been late. No one has ever waited for me. No...

Well 99% never late. In fact I am convinced I will be early to my own funeral. I will be ten minutes early and sit and wait rather than on time or late. I am just like my mother on that one.

I sometimes annoy people, because I am early everywhere. But what can I say?  I was raised in a household that believed that less than 10 minutes early is the same as being late.  Of course I'm gonna be early places!

I am a very punctual person if i set a date and time to be somewhere , i am the type of person that will be twenty minutes early if not on time , i dont like people to wait for me, i like to be dependable and reliable !

I am very punctual and really hate waiting for someone who isn't. If I can be ready on time why can't "they?" I once quit seeing someone because of this. I consider tardiness to be rude and arrogant. I also demonstrates lack of...

I'm ALWAYS LATE, ALWAYS. When I go out with my friends: IM LATE, when I used to go to school I WAS ALWAYS LATE! Knowing myself I'd probably be late at my own funeral! = / 

I'm not sure if I can say I'm really punctual... maybe just nervous... because it was always like that:
-School starts at 8am - I took the bus half past 6, got out the bus at 7, and went for a walk around school for an hour and could...

The worst is when i go to the cinema or something like that. I always have to be there like at least 15 minutes before the ads start. I can't stand people who say "the movie starts at 8:00 so the ads go till 8:20 and then I'll come...

Does it matter if we are punctual?  Here is what it does for me: it communicates to others that I value them, that their time is important therefore I will not waste one moment of it.  Being punctual is a stress...
