Set up another gtg with him. Make sure he is fully aware of the meeting and confirms he will be there on time. Be sure he has your cell number so he can call you when you don't show. The first time he calls you tell him to wait right there because you are on your way. Repeat over and over until satisfied.

I need to be more disciplined about that. But I would have thought that, since we set the meeting less than 12 hours before....

It like inviting people to a party and asking them to RSVP. Less than half will, but many of the non-responders show up anyawy.

Our society is quickly losing any common courtesy or understanding of it.
