Why is morning people being late just accepted?

So I’ve worked overnight most jobs I’ve had, and the morning person is practically always late. With one exception, every time I have to wait for another person, I’m always getting off late. And as far as I can tell, that person literally never faces negative repercussions for their behavior. They’re consistently 30 minutes late? “Aww, sorry buddy. I’ll try better tomorrow.” I’m 10 minutes late one time in 6 months? I’m getting a call from my supervisor or it’s being brought up in our 1 on 1. At a certain point, I have to wonder if I’m taking crazy pills. I’d call it nepotism, but there’s hardly any pre-existing relationships in most of these situations.
