when i was training with the national team, we lived and died by this mantra:

“if you’re early, you’re on time.
if you’re on time, you’re late.
if you’re late, you’re fucked.”

the entire team would have to do sprints if anyone was late. 

insane for me to fathom that 10 minutes late could be a norm.

In Japan on time is late. 

I’m always 15 mins ahead to everything there.  If it’s a professional meeting, I will be in the building super early, but only head to the meeting 5 minutes before because too early is an inconvenience to the host. It’s a very fine line.
