At time Im a little annoyed but fine to wait, five minutes after with no word Im agitated, and 10 minutes late I assume you arent coming and send an email for you to rebook or to let you know we wont need to be meeting

10 mins late with no communication? i’m leaving

it would depend on the event. for a formal meeting it would be expected to be there on time, for a reservation of some kind it would be within 5-10 minutes at the most, for a casual hangout i'd accept 15-20 with a decent excuse such as road work (or a less good excuse like "i got distracted my bad" if communication happens)

no i thought based on how your comment was worded that you were annoyed if they weren't early but simply on time
