I would probably be in (secret) tears if I was that late for my first day of work. I would certainly be super-stressed if I wasn't 10 minutes early.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
True story about my first day at my old job (please note that I had, in fact, had 2 interviews at that office, so I had been there before): I was really early, so I went to the McDonald's across the street for coffee, and then headed up to the office, where I pulled on the door handle...and it didn't open. Big glass door, which showed no signs of life (at that exact moment) inside. So I just kind of stood around in the hallway, waiting for someone to show up with a key and open the door.
A couple of minutes later, one of my new co-workers walked up, gave me the stinkeye for skulking about in the hallway (he had no idea I was the new employee), walked past me, and...PUSHED the door open.
I seriously didn't even try pushing the door open when pulling didn't work. I had been there before, TWICE, and presumably the door worked on both occasions. My only feeble defense is that it was my first day and I was nervous.
My only other defense is: Midvale School for the Gifted.

It's like everyone sat down and thought "Who could be worse than Jindal?"

Jesus, seriously? I keep wondering how Vitter is still in politics at all!

But he's not colorful and entertaining! Sordid, yes, but not in the charming way I can appreciate.

If he's not taking his political contributors on lavish trips to France, he's boring. Which is probably a capital political crime in Louisiana.
