It happens sometimes. Especially when doing business globally.
I'm not talking about that kind of situation, and Aussies generally have a very professional attitude about being on time. I'm talking about calls set up right in the middle of people's day, that over and over people show up late to. In fact, in South and Central America, I have had a serious of weekly calls set up over months at various times on different projects with different people, and invariably, they would be 15+ minutes late for EVERY SINGLE CALL.

On several occasions, this kind of behavior has caused other parties involved in the project to eventually drop out, and move on to partner elsewhere instead.
