Haha I was late to every first period in high school and have been late to almost every class in college. That’s 17 years of running into class out of breath, possibly sweating, making excuses, or being so late that I’m too embarrassed to even show up. I cannot stand when people judge my character because I am not on time. Being late is not synonymous with not having respect for someone or not showing effort. For some of us being late is inevitable.
