    Sort yourself out and turn up on time. Unless there’s a reason of course, but I can’t think of a good reason to be consistently late.

    The reason why I would be late for you is that you’re thoroughly unpleasant and I don’t want to be around you. I hope you find that a ‘good reason’.

      That’s how friendship works and I’m fine with it. Not everyone has to be friends.

      If you work for me though, you work on the principle that you will always do your best effort to turn up on time - and if you can’t even manage that then I’m not interested in you being part of my team and so we’ll be parting ways. This kind of thing tends to be surfaced during the interview stage and if it didn’t it’d surface in the first few months and so one of us would choose to terminate the contract. That’s also fine; you don’t have to like the people you work with and you don’t have to work with people you don’t like.

      I see no problems with the fact that our values are different.

        It sounds like you wont listen to reason, if you dont understand or can’t experience a situation yourself.

        That means you can only work with or bw friends with people like you. That’s a very small window of tolerance.

          I think you’re wrong.

          I specifically gave an example of when I would listen to reason.

          Being late because you can’t be fucked to get out of bed is a laziness problem, and someone trying to make it my problem (by being late) is inconsiderate at best. Not interested.

          Being late because of an event outside of your ability to predict or control is reasonable.

          If you can’t tell the difference then, again, that’s your problem and you’re right I don’t want to work with or be friends with you.
