Okay kids, this is what we call, micro management leading to a hostile work environment.
I don't think I've worked for a company that gave a shit if I was 10 minutes late.
One company had a time clock that only kept time records to one decimal place of an hour. The clock literally couldn't differentiate between someone clocking in 5 minutes early, or 5 minutes late.
Anyone who cares about how trivially late you are, isn't someone worthy of your labor.
It depends on the job. Sometimes coverage matters, sometimes specific times really matter for outcomes.
That entirely depends on the job. I worked retail management for a store that had a lot if single parents that had two jobs. I’d cut them slack if they were late getting from one job to another. Im a lot less inclined to tolerate lateness when someone doesn’t have other responsibilities. When their lateness forces others to stay late to cover them it is a problem.
I'm all for tolerance but why should the circumstances of the individual matter? A single non-parent might have just as good a reason for being late.
User “food safety isn’t important” is right. /s
I'm gen x and I believe this.
African American obviously in a hurry to go somewhere
"This lazy asshole thinks being late to the office is acceptable"
Sorry, feels like my eardrums just burst. Did someone blow a dog whistle really loudly?
Elder Millennial, I was almost an hour late for work yesterday, I walked in and made no apologies. Today it was only 11 minutes so I quickly got some candy to reward myself. Tomorrow's not looking great,
No, 98%
10 minutes is about 2 percent of an eight hour workday.
Fuck those companies. They should be grateful I even sent my resume to their corrupted pile of shit of a company
If I start 10 minutes late I work 10 minutes later. Only I am affected by being late. It's not a big deal.
Depends on the situation. Meeting up with friends? I wouldn't blink at them being 10 minutes late. Opening shift at a cafe? 10 minutes would put me so far behind I'd be in big trouble.
If you count your workers minutes, you should be doing something different.
It's a very good day when I show up just 10 minutes late.
If I have to work 30 minutes late every day and no one is depending on me to be there on time for anything, ten minutes late is on time.
My boss can complain to the bus company
I come in when I get to work. And leave when I'm done. Not at a time. So happy to work where I do, they don't care. one of my department comes in at 8 or before and leaves at 4:30 (16:30), I just try to make it in before 10 and usually leave around 6, so I can garden in the morning and yoga in the evening.
I give my private number to all my students, so they can text me if they're late for class. As long as it's not often, there's no problem.
Only one of MANY people have tried to prank call me, and he forgot to hide his number... And I could recognize his voice.
the last 5 jobs I spend the first half an hour fucking around making coffee and stuff
I don't think I've been on time to work a day in my life. I am an elder millennial.
