Redditor u/theoryofrelativetea shared the story of the time that they were late for an appointment to get some fingerprints taken that they absolutely had to make in order to teach a summer workshop. They had less than two weeks to go until the workshop started and needed to get the proper paperwork cleared first.

The subway was running behind schedule and made u/theoryofrelativetea late as a result. When they arrived to find that their appointment had been canceled they decided to comply with the rules in order to get an appointment anyways.

Despite the clever compliance involved here... Wouldn't it just be easier to make sure to show up on time? Especially since they knew that the subway was always late.
