Is it ok to be late?

sorry for being late

Source: Composite by G_marius based on Hans-Jörg Aleff's and Leo Reynolds' images

Being late is either an unacceptable behavior or a sign of a relaxed life depending on who you are in your culture. Should we be sorry for being late? Vote!

Created by Aurelien Leblay

On netivist we like to analize people's habits and behaviors. For instance, we are discussing if it's ok to sell unwanted gift, if it's silly to text while walking and if gallantry just sexism. Here we debate our relationship with time, how important is for us when people arrive late.

Punctuality is a real cultural matter, as some cultures do favor strict punctuality, and others are more flexible with the use of time. Those differences may lead to real misunderstandings between people and sometimes to even tensions and serious problems.

Sorry for being late

People that are often late to their meetings would claim this is just a sign a relaxed way of dealing with life and its contingencies. It means less stress and a greater capacity to enjoy life, without being too constrained by time and schedule frames. In some cultures lateness is almost a convention, and people take into account that most people will arrive with some delay to their meetings. Advocates of lateness argue that it is even salutary for the human soul, and that it prevents to view time in its sole material utility, especially in a constantly rushing society. Is a flexible attitude to time a way to reconnect humans with their real nature?

On the contrary, being on time is perceived as a way of achieving things with efficiency and reliability. Being on time seems a requirement to a well-functioning society. It is also a sign of respect to others, people don't like to wait or make others wait for them. Being punctual is a real matter of social utility and one could claim that being rigorous to maximize utility. Punctuality could be perceived as a common social good, a convention in social groups willing to respect each other and to contribute to harmony and fluidity in their relationships.

What is the most convincing view to you: being strict on time for social mindfulness, or being consciously stress-free on time issues for peaceful connections between people?

 

 

 

And from your point of view? Should we be always flexible with timing? It this just a sign of cultural differences or a way in which people take advantage of others? Is it acceptable to be late? Vote and debate!

SYNACK TECH IS FAST AND EFFECIENT
You really need to be careful of the risk involved in the world of cryptocurrency and investments. I was naive enough to believe I could make huge returns from my cryptocurrency investments without doing proper research about it. I lost $543,000 worth of USDT and BTC in a failed cryptocurrency investment scheme. Luckily for me, I was able to reach out to a reputable cryptocurrency recovery company that goes by the name Synack Tech and was able to successfully recover all the money I had invested into the scheme. {{{s y n a c k h a c k @ t e c h | - | c e n t e r | d o t | c o m }}} I'm forever grateful to the services of Synack Tech and this message is a recommendation to everyone who intends to recover lost digital assets of any kind.

When I and my wife started the process of purchasing our new home for us and our kids, we never expected to run into any problems with our credit report. We felt we were diligent in keeping up with our scores and what was reported without noticing any errors. We got faced with a significant credit reporting error that was going to make buying our home impossible. We were completely discouraged, and we felt helpless. From the moment we contacted 760Plus Credit Score, they were responsive, knowledgeable, and helped to set aside our fears. It was done in a way that also gave us realistic expectations, which we needed. We thank you immensely for helping us realize our long-term dream of becoming home owners.

Fixing my credit with the help of H A C K M A V E N S CREDIT SPECIALIST was the best thing that has happened to me this year, it was fast and easy. At first, I thought it to be a scam, but they proved me wrong by shooting up my F I C O score from 553 to 785, cleared all outstanding debt worth $25,000 and cleared derogatory, repossessions, and collections from my credit profile in less than 8 working days. All I did was contact them through the contact details I got from other good reviews about them online EMAIL: H A C K M A V E N S 5 @ G M A I L.

How I Got My Scammed Cryptocurrency Back

Do not, under any circumstances, entrust your cryptocurrency to these online investing firms. When I requested a withdrawal during the epidemic, they wanted me to make a larger investment despite the fact that I had deposited over $100,000 with them. Why, for instance, would I add additional funds while they blocked me from withdrawing any? When I told them I needed my money returned, they kept making excuses, but eventually stopped returning my calls or answering my emails. I told a colleague about everything, and he suggested WIZARD LARRY HACKER, so I messaged him. I must admit, I was impressed by the speed of his response. I received my money back because of how expertly they handled my case. WIZARD LARRY comes highly recommended.

I also had 60 days late on a car loan from 2019, no collection and charge off Citi bank from 2019 paid. Started rebuilding December 2021 with 522 FICO 8 but none of the strategies worked. I have to look for a credit repair company which my colleague at work recommended to me as a PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST to me. I believed her because I knew she was having a bad credit score but that day she showed me her credit score was above 800+ I contacted them immediately to be honest I was not disappointed.

I've been in many abusive relationships (that I ultimately ended) but never once have I been unfaithful. Why? Because no failing relationship is worth sacrificing my morals and integrity for. No matter how it unfolds with a partner, there should be a base level of respect and empathy towards them as a human being. A failed relationship will not pollute your mind and foster insecurities anywhere near as as being on the receiving end of adultery. I dind't know what was happening all along for years that my spouse has been cheating despite all the trust not until I met Samsmith the ethical hacker,who unveil to me everything remotely,can't let this slide l also need to commend his job.
