I'm running 10 mins late, sorry!
No problem!
Aargh! Traffic is really bad. I'll be more than 10 mins late now, sorry again!!
It's OK, don't worry. I'm in the café already so it's fine
This is not my day! I'm here but can't find a place to park. I'm looking for a different car park. Not sure how long I'll be
OK, LMK when you find a place
I might get something to eat tho
Of course! I'll be as quick as I can
OK!
Found one! Be there in 10 mins
Well done! See you soon
Thx for waiting
Tips
1. You don't need to write complete sentences for text messages.
2. Use abbreviations like LMK (= let me know) or use emojis to save time writing.
3. You don't need to use full stops (.) at the end of messages.
4. Say how many minutes you think you'll need, e.g. I'm running 10 minutes late.
5. It’s good to say sorry and sorry again, but you don't need to say sorry in every message.
Good day
I used to to be on time ,Even my duty I never had been later.Im always on time,if im late for any appointment i will be stressed and frustrated that's way if i have appointment i try to be on time,
I always ready for my job and my school, because i want to be learned has good.
I´m always on late. To be punctual is very important for everything. This shows how organized, and respectful is a person.
I'm usually on time when I have an appointment or an invitation. For me, it's late when the time has come and the other person hasn't arrived.
I prefer to arrive on time or a few minutes early. About 5 mins mean being late for me.
I'm usually on time , but when I'am going out with my friends and one of them is late around 5 or 10 min .I feel sad .
I usually try on time but if I'm not its just 10 mins late.For me 15 mins is late.
For me , five minutes is still acceptable.. After that is late and makes me feel bad
I'm usually on time and if I'm late, it'll be just ten minutes. Thirty minutes is late for me.
Don't worry I'll be as quick as I can. I'll let you know When I find a place to park.
