How many minutes before the meeting time should the parties arrive?

In recent years, many retail stores in the United States have been displaying Christmas-related products since before Thanksgiving (late November).....

Timing is required in order to live in society. In particular, it must not be late for the meeting time. Assume that the meeting time is 11:00 am. What time do you enter the scene?

  1. In general, you should be about 10 minutes early. That way you won’t be late. If no one is late, the schedule will not be delayed. That’s right.
    But one person told me a unique opinion. How many minutes before the meeting time should the parties arrive? The person answered that he would go exactly at the meeting time. Appears exactly.
    Well, if we want to do that, it will not be impossible. However, if all the people involved gather at the exact time of the meeting, it may not be possible to cope with unforeseen circumstances and changes in the plan. Would you please come early, just a little bit?
    In the first place, why shouldn’t we be late? In some cases, it may be better to be late. For example, if it is anticipated that inconvenience will occur when related parties gather before the set time, shouldn’t they be delayed by consideration and attention? Of course, the delay should be about 5 minutes.
    When thinking so, how to interpret the timing is different for each person. I think I can’t conclude that the faster the better.

  2. Isn’t the schedule for Christmas becoming more concrete? In recent years, many retail stores in the United States have been displaying Christmas-related products since before Thanksgiving (late November). This accelerated Christmas business is called “Christmas creep” and is said to have become prominent after the Bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008. That recession left a certain psychological effect on consumers.
    Of course, it is better to prepare for Christmas early. If you start preparations in December, you’ll be disappointed if the products you need are sold out or the price rises, right? Above all, we are busy in December.
    In particular, organizations that run large Christmas events will procure large quantities of materials faster than ordinary consumers. Companies like Hobby Lobby have invested in events that often use lighting equipment.

  3. Such simple efforts can prevent late arrival. Because people who repeat being late sometimes have their own views on timing. The gathering time is a time to gather after that. I have seen people who believe in this way.
    Well, by moving the time back and forth, I don’t think that people’s activities all have to be synchronized. That’s all for today’s post. Thank you ↩︎
