Frustrated foreigner living in Japan calls Japanese punctuality a half-truth soranews24.com

Sometimes Japanese people stick to a schedule, and sometimes they don’t, he says.
But Spanish-born resident of Japan and Twitter user @758adrian thinks that Japanese temporal fidelity is a half-truth, and is getting tired of being chided by Japanese people with more-punctual-than-though attitudes.
“Come to work five minutes late, and you’ll get chewed out, but no one has anything to say about sticking to quitting time.
After all, even if the meeting that was supposed to end at 5:30 is likely to run until 7, if you roll in five minutes late, no one is getting out until 7:05.
