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.

It’s also funny how it’s deeply geographically, and not just intergenerationally, cultural. I’d have a 10:00 meeting in Germany and everybody would be seated with their laptop open and ready to work five minutes prior. Same meeting in the Middle East, guys would walk in 15 minutes late, chit chat for another 15, and eventually consider getting to the order of business

Had the same experience playing FB for Paterno. 15 minutes early was always the expectation. One time freshman yr I walked in 20 minutes early to squad meeting and everyone was already there and it was started. He stops and says if everyone is 25 minutes early and you’re 15 early then you’re late. Never let that happen to me again!

If you’re going on coffee dates in nyc, you should definitely get there early so you grab a good seat 😉.

Is that an accurate statement or are they just saying things to get people riled up?

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.

This is how it's been in almost every sport setting I've been in. Coaches (especially my college HC) demanded discipline and timeliness, and drove in the fear that "your opponent gets in early". And it unquestionably made us a better team, and made us hold each other accountable (you don't show up early for the coach, you do it for your teammates). Idk how those how who didn't play sports were taught this lesson, but idk where'd I'd be today if I hadn't played. And idk how a younger generation missed this message? Is youth athletic participation at a low point? Or did the coaches go soft?

This was true in every sport for me as well. Definitely not the case with my kids’ teams, but you’d better believe we will be there early. And ready to practice — not get our shoes on, not stretch, not warm up — at the start time.

I can confirm. Gen Z just operates differently. Sometimes I respect them for having stronger boundaries than working millennials ever did, sometimes it’s frustrating as hell.

I agree that being on time is key in life, but to be fair showing up at a shitty job is a little different than showing up for national team training
