My dad raised us that "if you're on time, you're LATE". I am always early, generally 5-15 minutes or so. I always bring my iphone, plus I will have a notebook/pen and maybe a book to while away the time if I am earlier than I expected to be.

If you're not 5 minutes early, you're 10 minutes late.

I'm always early. Normally 15-30 minutes early. If it's not a good thing to be that early I wait outside.

10 minutes early AT MOST.

Anything earlier makes you look like you've nothing better to do with your time.

I'm never "early" to work because I don't work for free.

This too. I'll either wait in my car or find a nearby shop or cafe or something.

Always early. And if I am choosing to do something with my time, that DOES mean I don't have anything better to do. If I DID have something better to do I would be early for that, instead.

I value people's time, and couldn't give a rats ass about looking cool. If you want to go to lunch with me, it means I feel you are a cool person in some way and you deserve my respect. I don't feel formal attire or anything like that confers any real sense of respect. I SHOW people that I respect them by saying "hey your time is just as valuable as mine."

Also I hate getting stared at, and no surer way to do that than to be the last guy walking into a room

That's how I work.
