    I love scheduling work meetings with people in ukkk because they change their clocks on different schedules than amerikkka so there’s no simple way to remember the time difference. Plus reoccurring meetings inevitably get fucked up by time changes.

        I’m not online enough to have overseas internet friends, but that would be an actual bummer and not a “this is annoying, but I’m getting paid to waste time hehe” thing lol

        GMT hands are bourgeois decadence

        Edit: Had a picture of my own watch, but I’m not sure if a Photoshop wizard can potentially dox me so I replaced it with a stock image of a similar model lol.

        spoiler

        It’s a modern reissue, not actual USSR made lol. When this thing breaks or eventually runs like total trash I’ll probably get a Chinese made fake of something, maybe with a GMT hand - probably just a generic ass field watch though since I’m a creature of habit.

      I work with people in the US, the UK, Germany, and Australia. Every one changes their clocks at different times. Where I live doesn’t change its clocks at all. Death to time anarchy
