Dis Respect Dat Respect

Chill Annoying, Clowns

(1) matargashti-pilled 🇵🇸 on X: "I'm so tired of lateness being viewed as a moral failing. I've been shamed for it my whole life because it's framed as "disrespect" (and no, it hasn't helped me be more punctual) and if I lost out on a major life opportunity because of it I don't think I could have ever recovered" / X

Fuck this clown-ass nonsense.

Being consistently late is a moral failing and it is disrespectful. You are implicitly telling me that your time is more valuable than mine. One of the reasons I am almost never late is that I do not presume to believe my time is more valuable than anyone else’s. And I am one arrogant mofo so if I value your time just as much as my own, you can show me that courtesy as well.

I just stop dealing with people who are consistently late. It is literally not worth my time.
