@ashtonshudson That's cool then. Over here it feels like walking through a time portal to 30 years ago. Not even the posters on the wall have been changed. PCs, printers all from decades ago. Aircons look like they're blowing out lung cancer
@Ryan_Gasoline Swatch Internet Time - Wikipedia
Instead of hours and minutes, the mean solar day is divided into 1000 parts called .beats. Each .beat lasts 1 min 26.4s. No time zones; instead, the new time scale of Biel Mean Time (BMT) is used. Like UTC, BMT is the same throughout the world
@ashtonshudson @HenryFrancisFy1 Know someone who worked on the software to manage what you described. This was years ago. Change management is hard when it closes the taps to corruption. Of course implementation was aborted.
@ashtonshudson Hard disagree. Bee stunts growth potential of non bee businesses. Family business that might have grown to be massive is now split to avoid 10m turnover. Inefficiencies result and less chance of becoming globally competitive in the end =unrealized economic growth
@ashtonshudson UK does this with bank holidays. A solid plan if you can decouple the significance of a date from the day off. It would probably work out better for all if you can choose to not work either on the Monday or the date day. Less disruptive, but then schools etc would have to pick
@ashtonshudson It's such a dumb way to die. Some aauntie doing her makeup and lane departing and you never saw it coming from behind you. It's a risk not worth taking on SA roads.
