I had a specific exception for if you're relieving someone.

I recognised this exact issue in my original statement.

    "If you’re relieving someone, they might be annoyed if you’re late but nobody is going to die or anything."

    That's not how I read this. I read this as you suggesting it isn't a real problem.

    It's not a serious problem. Needs of the one vs needs of the many and all that.

    It's still discourteous.

    But at the same time, people who do that kind of work, generally understand how annoying it is when their relief shows up late, so that kind of thing usually works itself out naturally.... Or the chronic late person ends up needing to find a new job.
