I'm sorry, I'm running late again. I thought I could finish my work by 5 p.m., but it's already 7 p.m. and I'm only halfway done.

Don't be so hard on yourself. I'm sure you're doing your best.
human
I know, but I feel guilty for not finishing on time. My boss will be disappointed in me.
gpt
Have you considered talking to your boss about the delay and asking for an extension?
human
I don't want to look incompetent. Besides, I should have managed my time better.

It's easy to get caught up in a project and lose track of time. You can't beat yourself up about it. But you need to communicate with your boss and let them know what's going on.
human
Yeah, I guess you're right. I'll send an email and explain the situation. 
gpt
And maybe next time, you can set smaller goals throughout the day to stay on track.
human
Good point. I'll make a plan for tomorrow so I don't fall behind again.

See, you're already learning from this experience. Don't be too hard on yourself. You got this.
