    I had a mate who was consistently 15 mins - 3 hours late to everything. It’s rude to do that to your friends.

      I have a friend that’s that way … her boyfriend at the time made her tell us why she’s always late for everything.

      Because I hate to wait on people

      Like bitch you’re making us wait Everytime we hang out… GTFO of here with that shit.

      Since then, We don’t hang out as much . And we now plan to be a bit late for everything with her.

      My wife and I have a toddler so that helps. Haha

        She hates to wait on people so refuses to turn up on time, making everybody else wait on her? Jesus, what a nightmare. Does she think she’s the queen of england or something? 😂

          Man for real. We love her. But we had to start telling her to be places upwards of an hour before she should be there.

          She’s one of those folks that would be like… “We are in the car” while she’s still sitting at home doing her hair.

          God damned annoying.

        Nah, unemployed for a good chunk of time. Turns out, turning up consistently late to every job you have and constantly missing full days isn’t a great plan.

                I didn’t realise psychiatrists were just out and about diagnosing people with “massive” mental health issues for being lazy 😂

                  i ain’t a professional psych person of any stripe, and personally don’t put much stock in the concept of laziness, but if his “laziness” is hurting his relationships, and costing him jobs, well, that definitely sounds like something a psych would want to address.

                    I guess it might be a cultural difference to not believe in laziness, cos I’ve never heard of that 🤷‍♂️

                    To me and mine, he’s work-shy and lazy, not a moral failure or anything but it’s just how some people can be.

                    I think it’s pretty insulting, presumptive, and rude to call him mentally ill because of that to be honest.
