Do the preparation task first. Then read the text and tips and do the exercises.
Preparation
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.
My ex:
Hi, I'm sorry. I running 15 min late. Because there is a traffic accident and the traffic is terrified. let you know five minutes later.
Yes I am usually on time.I think people who respect time they respect themselves .
I always on time and I hate waiting !
In my university days, I used to go to class even before the teacher.
usually am on time but sometime 5 -10 minutes is maximum for me to be late
Honestly, I am always late, but I try to be more puntual
I hate being late. I always try to get there a good 5-10 minutes early to avoid any traffic and not keep others waiting. It's just a simple way to show that I respect other people's time.
I don't like being late. I'm usually come early about five or ten minutes before any gathering to avoid traffic crisis. Also, to show respect for the other person.
oke
Hello Everyone.
I don't like being late, but I usually do It because I'm a busy person and a little bit unorganized. I need to learn how to manage my time better.
Definitely I'm punctual person. Honestly I don't understand people which are still late. And be late is for me something around 10-15 mins.
