the manager for my local gw is leaving not good as he is a great laugh and the new guy is a bit of a :ph43r: . so last night we went out for drinks (i was only on coke as im driving and i would get sacked from work if they smelled it on me..) i got home fairly late as i had to drop a couple of people home and went straight to sleep after setting my alarm. needless to say i over slept, jumped up, rushed around for a bit and sped off to work to find no one here... at first i thought that im still dreaming. then it hit me, the clocks went back an hour! i was so glad the other shift had gone home as i would have looked as stupid as i felt. so i went to the canteen got a cup of tea and went back to sleep.is anyone else this stupid or is it just me? |

I didn't even know it was clock-time. Say "someone" still has to change the hour on his clock. And it's 10AM on it. What should "somone" change it to?

most comps do it by themselves as do phones etc. Its just the good old tick-tock clocks that don't. "Someone" would have to put their clock back an hour to be one hour earlier... YAY, TIME TRAVEL! -Glod |

i did a quick check around the house, around 40% of our time-keeping items went back an hour, and 60% didnt. Which means im about 40 minutes in the future ![]() squeeks |

You lot are lucky it went 1 hour forward here in Australia (course being a school student and getting up at 5 anyway helps adjust). |

Hah! Actually, for people in the US, it wasn't daylight savings time... Bush ( <_< ) decided to change it to the weekend after the rest of the world for some obnoxious reason... I looked it up. ![]() Pillz |
