Turn Back The Dial 24
The coolest thing just happened! I broke the glass cover off of my watch. At first I thought it was awful, but then I realized that I could turn the hands.
Imagine my joy as I realized that I could make it 11:30 again, and go enjoy another lunch. Meeting at 3:30? No problem, just turn the hour hand up to 6:00 and go home! I can sleep as long as I want as long as I turn it back to 8:00 when I get to the office. All my work estimates are now “five minutes”, and I complete them every time.
My coworkers have no idea the awesome power that I’ve gained with this one happy accident. They ask “what time is it?” and I say “what time would you like it to be.”
Of course the above is a total fabrication. Pretending it’s 6:00pm when it’s 8:00am isn’t going to do anybody any good at all, and is likely to make a mess of things for me.
But people still try to mandate velocity.
