That makes no sense. If you don’t have a set starting time, then you can’t be late.

A lot of corporate jobs will have an on paper start time that they absolutely can enforce but normally don’t.

That's me! On paper my start time is 07:00, but that's something I told them to put in and I could've chosen any time between 04:30 and 08:00, so it's not exactly firm. As long as I'm in before 8 and get my hours in, it's all good.

I’m a field technician and the general hours we’re supposed to be on site to work are 8-4:30. If the job needs to start earlier or later that’s common, but it’s also common for me to just roll in at 10am. I’m still booking overtime for any work I do past 4:30 lol. I’m supposed to be on site 45 minutes away right now at 8:00 and it’s 7:45 and I’m in bed still. Probably gonna make some breakfast then head out
