I was once hauled into a disciplinary meeting that lasted 30 minutes because I was 6 minutes late on a random day 3 weeks earlier

It is not OK to be late. Anything less than 5 mins early is late and undisciplined

I’m a civil servant, my start time is anywhere between 7 & 9.30..and even then as long as i get my hours done in the week it doesn’t matter

Adrian :
If work starts at 8:30, then that means you get through the door at 8:30. Not ready to work at 8:30.

Tatum :
the thing is though if they're going to be pedantic about 4 minutes don't expect anyone to stay even 1 minute later. this is utterly ridiculous

The few times I’ve a couple minutes late to work I’ve apologised and my coworkers were like “oh I didn’t notice”. That’s MATURITY

if you have time to look at the clock and people at work you're not doing as much as the ones working

Me from somewhere :
depends if that person is late often .. more likely there's more to the story.
I don't put up with regular lateness at all .

1) My official hours were 9-5:15. Kids came along. My boss let me leave early to get the early train home if I arrived earlier. Great.

the company I work for... held against me the fact that I clocked back in from lunch break 50 SECONDS early and I have a verbal warning for next time.

Mushy Bowers :
if someone is that strict on time you leave dead on time and have lunch dead on time. you could be in the middle of a drama and you just get your coat

the fact that they have to send a message the moment your at your desk, very micro manage red flags

I got an earful about being 5 mins late after I stayed an hour late the night before. That’s when the malicious compliance started 🤣

why are those in (lower) management? because it's where they can mess up the least

I worked at a large UK mobile company. If people arrived “late” we were trained to ask if they were ok…

Ok boss - we can waste 30 minutes while I send this whole thing to HR, or you can just say “oh, I see it now” and we’ll move on

my previous depot manager (since "taken early retirement") routinely turned up late to work. If he ever arrived at the same time as a lower employee

I'll take a guy who is 15 minutes late and kills it all day vs an early bird slugging their way through the day

Tokter Pepper :
8:30 start means that’s when I walk in the door. How fast you would want me at a desk entirely depends on how close you want me sitting next to a door

A boss told me I was late when he called at 8:32 & I just got in. I left at exactly 4:30, he called me at home & asked me why I left early. 1/2

The fact they probably spent more time going back and forth over the time than the 4 minutes he was supposedly late 😂

I’ve had this! Now I’m the boss I let my team manage their own time. They are grown ups, this isn’t school and I trust them. And they get results 💗
