    I’ve done jobs where I was legally not allowed to leave people unsupervised, so if my relief was late, I couldn’t go home. I feel like that’s also an exception to the ‘late is fine’ rule.

      And generally the exceptions boil down to “you being late is affecting a fellow worker”.

      Office jobs, which is most likely what these Gen z are referring to, is very different from rotating shift work

        Doesn’t even need to be rotating shifts. I kind of work in construction (county archaeology) and if I am not there on time my boss has to wait for me to drive us to the site which in turn costs the construction company because they can only start working when we are finished
