I’m a freight conductor and yard shifts have similar times. For example, tomorrow my shift is 06:32-14:32. They never explain why, you just show up when you’re told.

The annoying one starts at 23:57.

That seems exceedingly efficient for the system in place — and clearly lacking any consideration for the human element of that labor pool.

Sounds like a place where you are addressed by your employee ID number.

I get the feeling they’re tied to public transport times, but then the first bus or train of the day usually comes at the same time. I used to work on the railway and sometimes I’d have to start work at like 05:17 or finish at 00:06 or whatever.

How odd would it be if this place was an atomic clock repair shop.

From the makers of FreedomFries and FreedomUnits, it’s FreedomTime! No more worrying about numbers bigger than 12, just stop halfway through the day and start over. For Freedom!

In grade school I put my watch on “military time” because I thought it was cool. As an adult I have my phone on 24 hour time because sometimes you leave the blackout curtains closed and aren’t sure which 3 o’clock it is when you wake up.

They named them freedom fries because France wouldn’t step to some fake threat. Just eww.

Yeah, and in the first place they named them French Fries because it originally came from Belgian 👍
