you say you will meet a friend at the corner of this and that at 11:00. do you arrive 5 mintues before, spot on time, 5 minutes after, or whenever you get there?

i ask this because i am pretty punctual, to a fault. it comes from when i was a kid, my mother would always, ALWAYS, be late to wherever we were invited to, and since she would drag me along, i was embarrassed. so now, i am at least 20 minutes early to everything, i sit in my car and wait for the time. i'd rather be 30 minutes early than 5 mintues late. i know germans are spot on time. i know other countries are a bit more lax. i was gonna meet a freind, i showed up, he was about 10 mintues "late" and i wonder how the rest of you all are, in general....
