The Universe Is Against You When You Are Running Late

Its official. The universe loves to mess with you when you are late. I have known this for a while now, but after today I know its not just a figment of my imagination. If you are running just a couple minutes late its not as bad. Its when you are about 10-15 minutes late or more, that is when things get really bad. Here is when I found this to be a solid truth rather than just a thought in my head.I am running about 10 min late and the route I usually take has construction going on so I take a popular road. I get stuck at every stop light and the top speed is about 40 when the speed limit is 50. I think about taking a back road but I figure the highway will be faster. Wrong. Finally get to my exit and I am stuck behind a cement truck that I now have to follow most of the way in while I get stuck at more stop lights.

So it is now a solid fact that the universe will mess with you when you are late. But if you leave a bit early to get somewhere, most of the time you are going to be early.
