Late or Early?

[damselindistress]

Are you usually late or early when you go some place?

[Shakti]

Early. Better to be early I think, then there's no chance of being late. Being late gives the impression that you can't organize yourself properly or simply don't care enough to be there on time, not the best impression to give when applying for a job or meeting someone important. Being early on the other hand shows eagerness and a desire to be there, though being too early isn't great either, I don't think. And I've done that thing where you say in 100 words what you could have said in 10. Ah well, too late now xP

No, I like longer replies because there's more for people to discuss and you learn more about the thoughts of someone. It's more interesting. I've made threads on other forums where people give just one word answers. Like, to this question, they'll say for pages either "early" or "late" and nothing else. D= Do you know how redundant and old that gets. Agh.

And I agree with you about the early thing. I've started being early to everything now, but it has been hard for me to get this way because I hate going places so much that I leave at the very last minute always.

Yeah, I guess I was just in the mood to write. And one word answers are indeed annoying, I mean, people could at least mange a sentence. Well, okay, obviously some people can't xP

I don't do late. I just don't. I'm never late to anything. I hate people who think they can stroll into a lesson 5 minutes after they were meant to be there and see no problem with disrupting the education of those in the class who did get there on time because they actually want to learn. It's also pretty disrespectful if you ask me.

I hate it when others are late it very annoying. I think being Late annoys alot of people so I have to make sure I am early. ;D

When I go to friend's houses and stuff I'm early or at least on time. At school at lot of the time I'm late for lessons and stuff but just cos I get distracted or walk slowly
