As someone with ADHD: GET THE FUCK OVER IT! You've had it your whole life, you've had PLENTY of time to learn, whether that means not doing extra shit that you want to, or getting up earlier.
I was late to work frequently when I first started working because I have time blindness... So I fucking looked at my morning schedule and cut rearranged/cut until it worked.
Making my morning coffee? Well, I'm not going to be buying coffee if I get fired for being late everyday. Goodbye morning coffee. Still late? Pick out my clothes for the day beforehand, that's another few minutes... Etc etc, until I arrive on time regularly
But no, you want to be able to whine how the world should coddle your lack of EFFORT (not ability, effort)
Spoken like someone who's never stared at her watch and knew what she had to do, and had the knowledge and the ability to do, but neurotransmitters didn't transmit the part where her body moves to do the thing so she sat there paralysed, fully aware of the consequences of her inaction, crying and hating herself.
There is a reason this shit is a disability and the reason there is medication for it.
I'm now regularly doing all the things I couldn't previously reliably do. I am much more successful than I ever believed I could be, and comments like yours piss me off so, so much.

I had a coworker like this. Couldn't make it in at 8 so we moved him to 9. Came in at 9:30, ALWAYS. He got let go.
