Chronic lateness: Man, 57 who's always late is diagnosed with medical condition | Mail Online

That's good. Just what society needs. "You can't fire me! It's not my fault I'm always late for work, it's a medical condition!"

Uh-oh, that might be infectious.

He just looks mildly retarded to me. Lateness is the new and improved version of retarded, I guess?

So that is what's wrong with my wife. No matter where we're going she makes us late.

 

[Jizzlobber]

Must be a coder.

 

[vgeek]

He just looks fat to me. Probably takes him longer to waddle everywhere.

Nothing a lil adderall can't solve.

Just set all of your clocks 10 minutes fast. Problem solved.

Growing up my Dad was always late for EVERYTHING. He still is. I hated being late to things and as a kid, and swore to myself I wouldn't repeat that bad habit.

I consider tardiness the ultimate slap in the face to whomever you're meeting with. It says "my time is more valuable than yours."

It is thought that condition is caused by the same part of the brain affected by those who suffer with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

I'm never late to anything. Anyone who is consistently late to shit is just an irresponsible retard.

Man I hear you. The shit just kills me when someone is always late pretty much no matter what. It's like why would I even want to fuck with them?

Anyone that makes sweeping statements like this is usually lying in my experience. You've never been late to anything in your entire life? Also it depends on who is late in my opinion. I've worked with plenty of people who are fucking amazing at what they do even though their timing sucks. I've also worked with plenty of retards who show up on time and proceed to be useless the remainder of the day. Showing up on time is meaningless if you can't perform.

It's the chronic that's causing the lateness.

Oh wow.. talk about bad journalism paired with poor reading comprehension.

The guy has been diagnosed with a medical condition that CAUSES chronic lateness.

He has NOT been diagnosed with "chronic lateness".

Get your brain together, folks.

It's better than being inconsistently late. I had a buddy like that in high school; he was always 15 minutes late so we just accounted for it every time. Prob solved

Gotta love the medical community. Let's recognize "Chronic Lateness" but not leaky gut, intestinal candida or adrenal fatigue. Physicians don't care about health - only profits and god complexes.
