I suffer from this a lot. I'm the early guy. I don't mind chilling for an hour or so if I'm early, but I see no point in risking being late due to "unforeseen circumstances" that seem happen quite often. Late means you've missed the train/bus/flight and you ain't going anywhere.

My mrs and lad disagree. He's late for school almost everyday and it's never his fault. Traffic/roadworks/bus was late etc. But this happens almost every day so take it into account... I get nowhere
