The guys in my office are supposed to be professionals and as such I expect them to act like professionals. Part of that is showing up on time for work.
Being late, not to mention habitually late, is probably one of the fruitiest behaviors of loser GDI fuckups. Back when I was a pledge in undergrad (yes, this is a fruity anecdote about how hard I phrat), our first meeting began with our pledge trainer making us repeat the phrase, "If you're early, you're on time. If you're on time, you're late. If you're late, you're forgotten."
I have a zero tolerance policy for lateness. If I can wake ****** up, beat the traffic and the elements and get there at the sound of the bell ready to go, so can you.
My thoughts exactly.

My father (owner of a small blue collar business) always shortened this to "If you're on time, you're late" (and made it very clear that this was even more true for the boss's son).
Flex time all the way. The best job I ever had let me show up any time between 8:30 and 9:30 and leave 8 hours later. Employee gratitude = productivity.
