So you’re saying that your 30 minutes is more valuable than mine? And that your hatred of waiting on other people is more important than whatever you were supposed to do? I don’t care if you’re 30 minutes late once or twice and you tell me, but if you tell me “oh sorry I’m late, I saw that I could have left on time but I’d rather have you wait on me than be on time” then that’s an instant way to piss anyone off.

Exactly. I believe that if people were forced to say this phrase nobody would be late anymore.

(sorry for the short comment but I came to say the same)

I didn’t mean to say that it’s good that I‘m behaving this way. And I‘m not responsible for every emotion I have, you know. Some things need working on before you can get in control of them.

EDIT: Removed comment about downvotes.

The guidelines ask that we don't comment on downvotes:

> "Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading."

I apologize and retract my comment - cannot delete it now.

Do you have a bot that looks for downvote keywords?

Nope. Just read a lot of comments.

I see. I‘m asking because the response came almost instantly.
