I was usually late for work when I was working there (my manager's complaint all the time). I know it's awful but I wasn't reprimanded because they cannot fault my work as I've always managed to finish it and even do more what they've asked.
When I was working in Accenture Philippines, our team had a money pot for all the late people to pay into (5 pesos for every 5 minutes late). The money pot will usually be used for food for our snacks and such. One time I had to pay for an hour's worth of late because I opted to ride in a friend's car going to work and the car broke down on the way. Haha..When I resigned, they all were sad because the money pot would be empty everyday!![]()
