    Might be a mistake to misinterpret military life as an accurate representation of the modern workplace.

    The vast majority of workplaces would want you to be at work by a certain time. I had a job in a corporate environment before the Army. I’m assuming 2010 is still considered modern?

    Just show up on time. How hard is this? Whether it’s work, Thanksgiving dinner, a weekend meetup or anything. If something is supposed to start at a certain time then show up at that time. Is that a difficult concept to grasp?

    Don't mind him. He's just the vietnam vet with a chip on his shoulder. He hasn't been right since

    Agreed.

    When I worked a desk job years ago I showed up on time. I don't think I was ever late. The reason was that is when my boss expected me to be there. It would have been disrespectful of me to be late.

    I am still on time for any meeting I attend. It's common courtesy to the others that found a way to be there on time.

    As a coach I have the bus leave pretty much on time. Three weeks ago I left our top athlete behind. He had n attitude that the team could not compete without him so he could stroll in whenever he wanted to. Everyone has been on time since that.
