    Wait, expecting people to be punctual can’t be an autistic thing, right?

      It’s not so much the expectation of punctuality, but the internal reaction when it doesn’t come. There is the self doubt, the panic, the inability to do something else in case you miss the late call, etc. It tends to spiral and can be paralyzing in some cases.
