You go forward

Daylight savings. Most places in the United States adjust their clocks twice a year. Great. Fine. But Arizona does not. We stay still. Good. Fine.

But here's what happened on a call this Thursday:

JL: We're going to need to get together tomorrow for another call to follow-up.
Me: Okay. That's fine. Just remember I'm on Pacific time now.
CW: What? I thought you were on Mountain time.
Me: Yes. We were. But everyone just changed their clocks and we didn't.

[chirp-chirp-chirp]

Me: Get it?
JL: She WAS on Mountain time. Then everyone adjusted their clocks. Now she's on Pacific.

[chirp-chirp-chirp]

Oh the CRICKETS were on double-time!

What's crazy about all this? CW is in his late 50's and was BORN in the United States so he's been through a lot of daylight savings adjustments. AND he used to live in Arizona for 3 years. And we had to explain to him that I was now in synch with the west coast?

I just have to laugh. It's interesting when people just don't get what you're saying. And you're at a lose as to how to get them to understand. Needless to say, we skipped the topic and moved onto something else. [chuckle-chuckle]
