Does being late going to school or your job affect your day at school or work?

Yeah, sometimes.. At times, I have to bring the work to home also, and then I am very lazy the next morning that I don't wish to got to office.. I always try not to bring my office work to home, coz that spoils my morning...

I am a businessman running a business centre. There are a lot of people who are regular would assume that I open the office at 9 a.m. sharp and they would like to get things done as quickly as possible to catch up with their office timings. If I open 15 minutes late, I would have lost 10 to 15 customers. It is also the faith people have that I open theoffice on time. The discipline is very important compared to personal inconvenience. I also feel very proud to be on time (though it is basic necessity and first degree of honesty). Whether it is business or office or school or anything, being on time or keeping up the time is one important thing and many a times half the work is over by doing so.

Yes it does affect my day!, being late it means a MARK late on my time card, and a deduction to my monthly salary, it makes me sad as well specially if the team is aiming for a month long perfect attendance and am the one late.
