You’re consistently late.

Punctuality is the foundation of effectiveness, and who will trust you with expanded responsibilities if you can’t even manage your schedule? If you work with customers, keeping them waiting is likely to lose business. Punctuality is a mark of respect, so for job success, you must find a system that gets you there on time, every time.
