Conversations on Time

My alarm clock didn't go off this morning.

Rosie overslept because her alarm clock didn't go off this morning.... . Rosie: Sorry, I overslept.  My clock didn't go off this morning. Francie: Again? Rosie: That's right, even though I did set the alarm last night. Francie: Your clock never works.  Perhaps you should buy a new one. Rosie: Well, if it breaks down again tomorrow, I'll definitely buy a new one. Francie: Maybe by then it'll be too late. Rosie: What do you mean "too late"? Francie: By that time you'll be fired.

Jessica is late everytime it is daylight savings time because she always forgets to put the clock forward one hour....
	Kelly:	Ha, Jessica, you're late.
	Jessica:	Yeah.  Each time we switch to daylight savings time, I always forget to put the clock forward an hour.
	Kelly:	Well, then later this year when we switch back to normal time, don't forget to set the clock back one hour.
	Jessica:	I just can't win!  Each time we switch back to normal time, I always forget to put the clock back an hour, so I always come to work an hour early.
	Kelly:	So, just remember.  Spring forward, fall back.
	Jessica:	So, that'll make it even.

I always set my clock ahead ten minutes.

Roselind is very curious about why Jamie's clocks show different times.... Roselind: Hey, you have so many clocks in your bedroom. Jamie: Yeah, I want to make sure I can wake up in the morning. Roselind: But is there something wrong with your clocks?  None of them has the same time. Jamie: I do it on purpose.  I set this clock ahead ten minutes, and this one back ten minutes, but I always set that one to the right time. Roselind: So the alarms ring every ten minutes? Jamie: Yeah. Roselind: Are your crazy or what? Jamie: No, I am a heavy sleeper.  I need thunder to wake me up.
