    You clearly have no experience with ADHD. I have autism, I’m always way too early. My ADHD friends just don’t work that way. They are always late, even when they plan on leaving early.

      I know this probably won’t help but it’s kind of funny. My D&D group years ago had one member who was consistently an hour or more late. So the DM started telling her the game was an hour earlier. People would show up slightly early for the real time, and she would straggle in apologetically, pretty much right on time. Worked like a charm for almost a year before she finally caught on.

      Something always happens and because I’m not hyper sensitive about time I don’t really mind if I’m delayed.

      It’s usually because the cats won’t come in. But I can’t say I couldn’t come because I was worried the cats would get wet so instead I blame traffic.

        Hahaha same here, I cannot leave the house when my cats are still outside. I taught them to come when I whistle, that really helps. Every time when I feed them or give them a treat, I whistle before I give it to them. After they get used to it, I give them something 75% of the time.
