I hate waiting for people for just about anything, especially when someone says they'll be there in 30 minutes and they're there in 45, I just hate that. Although I'm to nice a person to voice my dislike of it.
I'm always early for everything by 5 to 15 minutes. As a musician I have a huge aversion to things not happening on time, and for things to happen on time it requires a certain amount of 'set up' time. Example, if I'm to play a gig at 10pm I'm there at 9:30 so all my gear is set up and working properly, giving me enough time for emergencies and to perhaps have a drink before the set. This has translated to my non professional life. I'm almost always early baring unforseen circumstances, and when others are late, it really grinds my gears.
