That's a real struggle for a lot of people. I'll admit to habitually coming into the office at 8:15 or 8:30. But I found a career where that works, so it's okay. In an old job where punctuality was more important (shift work), I had to buckle down a bit more.

Meanwhile, my parent's housekeeper that comes in once a month or so for a deep clean absolutely cannot hold a regular job, because I've never known her to arrive within 3 hours of when she planned. The first time she was hired was for a make-ready on their house that was being built while we were all living in campers on their property during Covid. I went over to the new house to grab some ice from the freezer at like midnight, and found her dusting the master bedroom because she hadn't arrived until like 5pm and make-readies take all day.

That being said, she does and I'd recommend her to anybody, so long as they're okay with the housekeeper occasionally being there at like 7 or 8 at night when they were supposed to be there from like 10am till noon.
