The structural issue is having people constantly late.

And, yes, constantly being late IS A CHOICE. I’m not talking about hitting traffic, the kid or pet being sick, having to deal with an emergency, or stuff like that. I’m talking about people that are repeatedly, constantly, late to everything. People are not just born to perpetually be late.

Work isn’t the only thing going on in their lives. They aren’t robots that you own.

  As I have said, occasionally something happens. But I know too many people that are RARELY on time.
  
  And I’m a worker. I don’t say I own anyone. Being late fucks with your fellow employees that have to pick up your slack.

    Then don’t pick up the slack. Tell your boss they need to hire enough people so the shop runs well even when people are late.

    There wouldn’t be slack if people were reasonably on time. Easier just to get rid of people that refuse to be on time.
