Start thinking 15 minutes ahead.

OP here. I started doing that with my coworker who then started to adjust earlier. [b]One time we agreed to meet in Tysons at 10 and he was there at 9:00
[/b]
I asked him just what the hell he was doing and he was flustered, no answer.

It's like he's trying to 'win'.

But there isn't a contest.

Freaking bizarre.[/quote]

He was trying to beat traffic, or get shit done before you showed up.

I'm early to places all the time, but I sure don't expect everyone else to be. I get myself coffee, sit and read, enjoy some moments to myself (as a parent those are precious and rare!).[/quote]

NP. That's great, but that wasn't the point of this poster's story. Wasn't this the guy who started a meeting with intros and stuff very early? [/quote]

Ask yourself why the coworker and the clients were all there... and OP wasn't.  It's hard to be exactly on time. At the end of the day, people trying to beat traffic or ensure they are punctual may end up someplace a bit early, and when you are hosting the event/client, it's helpful to get ahead of that.
