I'm sometimes late... ; >
It tends to be because I'm over optimistic in trying to fit more things in. Either that or I've become lost in an email, forum, programming or similar.
For me, being told-off annoys me. It's my job to focus on one thing 100% and to block others out, and I am relatively successful in that.
I also find it hard to build a routine (alarms etc) because I'm at a new company every 1-5mths or so. For example, I have an organizer but can't plug it in to the PC where I'm working now. Unhappy about that. So yeah, usually I'm just getting a routine going re todo lists, schedules, files - then I move on.
I do try to start all formal meetings on time now. What helped me in the past was a boss who didn't say too much if we were late, but made a point of starting on time - either way. Plus I've done community and training work where I had to be organized.
