There is nothing that can happen at my job that, if not done quickly, will have a real negative impact on a human being. This does not stop my coworkers from acting like the sky is falling if something is delayed by a few days.

I'm gen x and I believe this.
It is, lmao
The same amount of work gets done
But if we accept that explanation, then we also have to accept that people don't work the majority of their workday
A lot of work is just being available or waiting for next steps without losing track and focus.
If you count your workers minutes, you should be doing something different.

Depends on what your job is, if it's shift based timing is an issue. 9-5? As long as everything gets done and people xan reach you who gives a fuck
I'm a millennial and I show up an hour and a half late and I think it's fine. I DO put all my hours in so I leave later but whatever.
Also, just get some serious dirt on your piece of shit boss and you're golden. Fuck em'.
I used to work retail where if I showed up on time, I was late and had customers waiting outside the store.
Then I finally got a desk job and showed up 5 minutes early the first day and had to wait for 15 minutes outside. I then quickly realized most people don't show up till 8:20-8:45. So that's my start time now.
African American obviously in a hurry to go somewhere
"This lazy asshole thinks being late to the office is acceptable"
Sorry, feels like my eardrums just burst. Did someone blow a dog whistle really loudly?

Trucks leave at 7:15, you're either on one or not working today.
Elder Millennial, I was almost an hour late for work yesterday, I walked in and made no apologies. Today it was only 11 minutes so I quickly got some candy to reward myself. Tomorrow's not looking great,
No, 98%
10 minutes is about 2 percent of an eight hour workday.
