***MoneyMate*** on the appointment A4 sheet that has loads of rubbish on it too.
My time is normally 11AM to 11:30AM-I truthfully made the honest mistake of reading the finish time as the arrival time0 -

Why were you late? There is no excuse unless you were ill, in a crisis or at hospital
How can you miss read a time?????
It's actually very easy and happens to the best of us and I'm surprised at how you have to ask that.

I've been an hour late for a paid job before, like others. All I did was work through my 1 hour lunch break, no going near the Gaffer's office. Debt then repaid.
I vote for TROLL - otherwise, if you believe what you've written here, you deserve to be sanctioned and I can't see you ever holding down a job with your attitude.:hello:0 -
***93123*** my disbelief is that such a small non fatal mistake is a problem to the benafits agency0

Never misread a time at all or a date.
You read it when you are given the date, stick it on my lap top reminder and my phone keep all my appointments in my bag and look at all my JC and WP stuff at least every other day and have a planner.

Well lucky you, but probably billions of others have! Nobody is perfect and nobody remembers something correctly 100% of the time.
And there is no "need", it's not done on purpose and is certainly not due to being lazy or careless (at least not always).0
