and let them deal with it.

I think that's because you're autistic as well.

Well, I think when I'm working with train times, I kind of have to be on time.

Obviously, you can't control what happens with the trains because that's often outside of our control.

But I think the reason that people are trying to be early is because they've been scolded in some way for being late.

Whereas I think I've always been able to get away with being late.

Hence the reason I'm not super aware of... I know some people think it's really rude, but...

But in my job, and I think this is where the real problem starts, is that if someone starts crying at the end of a session, I can't just say, right, I don't care that you're emotionally dysregulated right now.

You have to leave because I have someone else waiting.

And because I don't plan gaps between sessions, I work back to back.

I think I've got good at telling people I'm going to be late because these things can happen.

And that's formed a bad habit in the rest of my life where it's almost like, well, I've got a reason to be late and no one tells me off for it because they expect it because I don't apologize for it anymore.

So I'm not saying it's the best habit, but I don't want to keep apologizing for myself.

I just have a problem with time distortion.

So that's it.

It's the executive function.

I blame the ADHD and I think that's an actual thing.

But you're the opposite end.

Yeah.

So you don't need to apologize for that.
