When you're on a time schedule (work, appointments, flights, etc) how do you USUALLY arrive?

Right on the dot

Fashionably, a few minutes late but nothing noticable

I'm usually running to get there and barely make it.

Mr. DS

I recall growing up pretty much ALWAYS running to the bus stop to get there.  I'm no different now at my job or when I have doctors appointments.  I'm always running to get there to barely make it.  Its just me, I hardly ever find myself early.

I'm a punctuality freak and will invariably show up early.

I like to be on time or early, much to customer's surprise, but traditionally run late to personal engagements so I suppose you could put me down as "I'll arrive when I arrive"

I'm almost always early.  Anything involving the kids though, that's a last minute rush.

I always leave the house early.  You never know when you will be delayed by a traffic accident, road construction or whatever.

hi
I always try to make it on time but alas i do have a tendency to be late.The only time i  remember arriving early was when my wife became pregnant with our first child.You might think i would have learned from that but we went on to have two more children :thumbup:

I'm usually right on the dot. That's one area where I'll toot my own horn. I have an uncanny ability to assess how long it will take to do A, B, C and D before the event, appointment, etc. It's almost metaphysical.

However, that's me on my own. With two young children, life is different. I'm almost always late if they're involved.

I'm the "usually running and barely get there" type....for some reason if I try to do things before work they take longer than expected.
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

early, it drives me nuts if I'm just there on time or a bit late
