Different Views on Time

People differ in their points of view on time. If an American from the North makes an appointment with someone in an office such as a professor, a manager, or an official, for 11:00 a.m., he will probably arrive in the office earlier—maybe about five minutes before eleven. He will tell the secretary that he has arrived for her 11:00 appointment, and is waiting. He will wait comfortably for five or ten minutes. But, after ten minutes, he will become uncomfortable and a little annoyed. On the other hand, if a Latin American makes an appointment with someone for 11:00 a.m., he may not arrive in the office until 11:15 or 11:20. He will not be surprised if he has to wait until 11:45. The idea of what is early and what is late differs from culture to culture.
