What Punctuality Says about You
Does the 15-minute rule apply to you? Are you the person who always shows up on time and hates it when others are late? Or are you the opposite and come late to work and meetings all the time?

You're extremely punctual

There are people who value punctuality above everything else. If they're only 5 minutes late, they get hysterical. For them, it's a disaster and the reason to be ashamed. You're one of those people. While being punctual is undoubtedly a very good thing, you're putting too much value on it. Exaggerating the importance of certain things can be dangerous. Try to relax. Arriving 5 minutes late is not the end of the world.  Share this test with your friends and see who care the most about time management!

Time is money

We're a bit envious of your punctuality, to be honest. Simply because you don't know what a deadline is! You value your time and the time of others. For you, every minute is precious. However, this does not mean that you should get too proud of your punctuality and judge others for arriving a few minutes late. In life, anything can happen. Being punctual is not always a good thing either. Remember how many times you've come too early and stood there alone waiting for your friends?It's pretty boring and unproductive, huh? Share this test with your friends to let them know (if they still don't) that you're very serious about about arriving on time!

Business before pleasure

Your test results indicate that you can be punctual, but only if you want to. You understand the importance of time management and try to stick to a schedule. However, you don't always succeed. You seem to always get distracted by all kinds of things, such as TV, social media or your dog. This prevents you from arriving on time, which may irritate other people (your boss, family, etc.). Try to concentrate and focus on your schedule. If you're still running late, a good thing to do is to warn your friends or family. Share this test with your friends and see which one of you cares about time most!

Punctuality is not your thing

It's obvious that punctuality is not your thing. You keep coming late and have no regrets about it. You don't care about previous arrangements. What's more, it seems like you don't see your lack of punctuality as a shortcoming. You're sure that people will wait for you for as long as it takes. However, it's a very dangerous path than can ruin your relationships with people. We recommend that you think about your behavior and try to make the habit of arriving on time. Learn to value your own time and the time of others. It's not as hard as you might think! As for now, you should warn your friends that you'll be late for your next get-together!
