It definitely depends on the job. I work in TV and live events. If your late you either miss the pre production meeting, or we all have to wait for you to start. If your later than that you are holding the team up and making people work harder to be ready by on-air time.

Swipe keyboard and laziness. At least I showed up on time.

Yeah. It definitely depends on the job.

If you're relieving someone, they might be annoyed if you're late but nobody is going to die or anything. If your work isn't extremely time sensitive, nobody should give a fuck...

If things can't go because you're not there, and it's very time sensitive, then there's a problem. Everyone is waiting on your ass to show up.

“ If your work isn’t extremely time sensitive, nobody should give a fuck…”

Except if Im staying to cover for you and I have other things I need to do or want to do I might give a fuck. The “no one should really care” POV overlooks how being late can impact others.
