I know that some people have brain injuries and wide variety of physical ailments, I understand that, but I am struggling to understand people who are simply chronically late.
To me it is SO rude and disrespectful that I cannot wrap my brain around it as anything other than brain injury.
I have two chronically late people in my life and one has badly damaged most of her relationships, cost herself jobs, and immeasurably hurt the people who wasted time waiting for her. She says she has no sense of time passing. 5 minutes and 50 minutes feels exactly the same to her. If that is true, then she should be tested to see if there is a problem, but she refuses. If it is true, even without any confirmation of physical issues, then you need to accommodate that! Like the tricks and tips the people have on the forgetfulness thread. If you cannot tell time is passing, watches and cell phone alarms are your friend.
She was 2-1/2 hours late last night upending my family's entire night's plans. Beyond rude......
