I can't stand it when people are late, my mother has always been perpetually late. Ever since I was young I couldn't stand it so I make a point of never being late. The rare time when I am late I always call and am deeply apologetic.
My Girlfriend has a problem with constantly being late. I used to begrudgingly put up with it until this one night she asked my to stop by her friends house on our way to dinner. What was supposed to be a quick drop pick up of an item turned into me waiting in the car for 40 minutes. I tried calling her, knocking on the door, when she finally returned she half heartily apologized. I didn't say a word drove her right back too her house told her to get out of the car and that I would call her in a couple of days. She hasn't been late for anything since.
