I was on the train heading to the meet up place for work.
The appointment is 8am which they leave on time. So I was like two train stops away, and I stole a glance at a guy's watch. Its 8:05am. I was shocked, because I thought I was early. I boarded a train stop away at 7:45am.
I checked the time on my phone...gosh...phew...its only 7:50am.
I have know a few people who do that. Thats " adjusting their time ahead by 5 to 10 minutes". They claim they can "shock"/bluff themselves to be on-time or earlier. And people are still late, especially here in Malaysia and Singapore, that applies to yours truly as well. :). Worse still, its a domino effect.
Why do people bluff themselves ? Didn't they are aware that they already adjust the time ahead? Or did they adjust the time and then just magically delete off that part of memory in their brain.

same here.. I cannot understand this.
On contrary, I am tempted to adjust my watch back 15 or 20 mins....so if I was ever late.. I can blame it on my watch..... Nice try huh?
