As a medic, I don't think being late to work would go over well with the public either. Being 10 minutes late to work would could mean Grandma is going to be dead.

But I guess it don't mean nothing if you are working at Walmart or answering a phone.

Good thing that dying grandma waited for your shift to start.

Sure, there is the previous crew still working. But they've already completed a 12 hour shift and are exhausted. So let's just be late and keep them on one last call that will add at least another hour to their day/night. Ain't no big right?

I agree that it's unfair with respect to all the coworkers. But if somebody dies just because you are 10 minutes late, this hospital/institutions has some pretty serious issues. Of course that no excuse to be late.

They make new grandmas every day

Good thing to know we won't need to be punctual to your emergency. I'll let fire know too.
