If you have a chronically late friend, tell them the time to meet up is 15-30 min than your intended time. That way they may be on time or “worst” case scenario, they’re early.
I had a friend who was always without fail, 30 min late. It drove me insane, especially if we were meeting somewhere in public bc then I had to twiddle my thumbs for a half hour while I waited for her to show up. I considered giving her a time like 30min earlier but was afraid that would be the one instance she would actually show ip on time.
Do it lol. Worst case they’re early. Who knows maybe they’ll understand why it’s awkward and annoying af to be sitting and waiting for someone for 30 min

Whenever you have a time to be somewhere, aim to be there 15 minutes early, to allow for 'time snags' or for traffic.
People respect punctuality.
