Where you should

- Don't come to work on time. If you want to fail at work, then don't be on time. Punctuality, or being where you should when you should is a common trait of successful people. If you talk about others behind their backs, then you can expect others are talking about you as well. So if you want to fail, stick your nose where it does not belong.

- What do "being where you should when you should" and "stick your nose where it does not belong" mean in this situation?

Thanks very much to Teachers,
