Employee tardiness takes a huge toll on the business and other employees. It also affects someone’s reputation and reliability which will hinder their ability to get promotions or other work-related rewards. Being late to work all the time can also affect employee morale because it forces other workers to work harder.

They are rectangular in shape and make the most out of the space available. However, they could be even better. Instead of forcing over two hundred cars out of one exit, they could have added a second exit. A simple fix to a big problem. Not only is the entire junior lot trying to get out at the same exit all at once, but half of the senior lot uses that exit. The school itself only has two entrances and two exits. For a school of over two thousand students, this is not enough. Adding an additional exit to the back of the junior lot will enable them to choose which exit they want to use. This will decrease the amount of cars going through each exit at one time and will benefit the
