How long can you wait?

I'm a punctual person and it makes me frustrated when people come late to meetings. I can wait for about 15-30 minutes for meet-ups. But I already get agitated when I realize that I've been sitting for more than 30 minutes staring at nothing and anticipating someone's arrival :( It feels like I'm wasting my time waiting (and sometimes, there's a mixture of worry for them). And what's worst is that I cannot hide my frustration when the other person/people came late, and I rant at them, otherwise I won't feel better. How about you? How long can you wait without being bored and frustrated?

I am a punctual person too- and I usually come 5 or 10 minutes earlier- so I really hate it when the person/s i'm supposed to meet with are late- i hate waiting. I can wait as long as an hour, but yeah, I'd also rant at the person who's late, but just for a while.

It does frustrate me when people are late. I am usually very punctual person. I like to get to a meeting, appointment, or something on time and preferably early. I will wait for a while. I will try to wait for as long as I feel I need to, but sometimes it is difficult to do so, without getting a little frustrated or annoyed.
