Very slow clock

Whenever I am forced to wait on someone that is late. I am one of those vince lombardi believers..if you are on time you are late. I hate to be late and every minute I spend waiting on someone else seems like an eternity. I think it's because I view being late as an insult, it's a lack of respect for someone elses time, not an impression I am happy giving of myself.

Hey bounce! I hear ya! There are many times that I feel the clock is running way too slow! Whenever I am waiting for someone to pick me up I feel that time is taking forever! When I am waiting to see the doctor or waiting for anything I feel the same way! I am not a very patient person so waiting for anything always feels like I am waiting forever! Even if I am just waiting for a table in a restaurant it feels like I am waiting for hours even if it is twenty minutes! So, when I was working it really felt like the time was always dragging especially when it was at the end of the day after 3:00pm! It would feel like forever to get to 5:00pm! So, I sure know what you mean!

Well other then work I presume? Hmm, waiting in line or in the waiting room at a doctor's office or at the hospital. Visiting someone in the hospital, or being the person in the hospital. Sometimes waiting for a prescription as well!

ANYTIME you're waiting for something to be over or something to begin... time creeps on by. Sometimes it's waiting for 430 to come so I can leave work... now today it will be waiting for around 8pm when I take my best friend out for her 50th BIRTHDAY!!!! I know when I was younger and we were going to Disney world - the night before my brother, step sister and I couldn't fall alseep... but time was going by in minutes instead of hours..... oh, but boy is that anticipation awesome! :) I hope myLot helped you kill some time yesterday! lol

For me, the clock seems to go very slow whenever I go home to our province. I'm usually very excited to go home and taste my mom's home-cooked meals that it seems as if the ride goes on forever. I get so impatient whenever I go home and I can't even read a book to pass the time 'coz it's dark (I travel during nighttime).

That would be when the power is out. All of my books are ebooks now so I don't have anything to do when the power is out. That happens a lot here. I'm almost always in front of the computer and I work in my computer. If the battery goes I have no idea what to do anymore.

I had the complete opposite type of day. i was Busy. We are finally get to all the work we couldn't do during the storm. The day flew by because I was so busy.

bounce two weeks back my computer refused to boot up and let me on the net., my soncame and trouble shot, I guess thats a word, any way he needed more time to work on it, so took the drive back to his apartment and trouble shot some more. well this took some three days, and there I was no internet, no nothing so I w ent downstairs and watched the cou ch potatoes sleeping away in front of the big screen t v. oh that was a lot of fun, not. each of those three days seemed like a week. no mylot no music, no surveys,no nothing, watching grass grow would even have been more interesting. So I went to my meals early and time dragged here too. it just seemed like everything was in slow motion, and that I was never going to get back on line. well he did get it repaired and back in order. and time sped up oh yes, I missed three days worth so I was short about six dollars for my internet bill but I had made most of it on mylot so that was so good.

Hi, bounce58. I notice this when I am at home on Saturday's and Sunday's. If I have no where to go and nothing to do it will be very boring during these days. It seems like the hours just drag by so slowly. I don't know why it is like that. I guess it is because, I have nothing special to do and because I am bored silly. When I was in high school and any other grade school, the time would go by so slow, especially if I was in a class that I did not want to be in. Directed Studies would also go by really slow too. Sometimes, I had no homework from another class to complete.

When I was at school, I remember watching the clock throughout the lesson, and it seemed to actually move slower just to annoy me The time always slows down when you want it to go fast and vice versa for when you want it slow.

There was one time where I swear it felt like the longest week ever. It was on Friday and I really did not have that much to do. However, I had to be at the place I was until a certain time. Therefore, I had to sit there bored out of my skull. So, I started watching the clock. Big mistake, as the time just seemed to crawl by insanely slow. Minutes felt like hours and hours might as well have been days. It was one of those days where you could just feel yourself aging, as time moved on slowly. Thankfully it ended, eventually, about three hundred or so years later. Well maybe not, but it did seem like it. That was one of the longer days and with nothing to really occupy my time for most of the day, the clock seemed like it was running slowly. In fact, it almost seemed as if it was running backwards to an extent.

I would have to say what I found anoying and the most slow was when it was busy at Pizza hut. Yes, busy. When its busy and you are constantly on the phones, and you're taking order, after order, after order, and you see and have to recite predicted and projected times to custmers then the time can crowl by because as you read those time stamps you realize only one minute's ticked by and you just want your shift over so you can stop talking, and typing, and more talking, and more typing.

Hi bounce58, I used to work at a Check Printing Company from 10PM through 6:30AM. The first few hours were the busiest and the next ones busier. We'd be racing with time, processing the orders, especially the "rush" ones so we could send these to the Printing Department. Towards the end of the shift, the work gets less and less, but the most trying time is 6AM to 6:30 AM. I'd keep on checking and comparing different clocks and check my own watch. I swore that something was realy wrong with the clock (or my head?). Waiting at the doctor's office; holding one's breath for test results, loan approval, job application (with butterflies in the stomach); standing in line at the post office, the DMV, the Immigrations; driving at snail pace during "rush hours" or jeez, waiting of any kind is torture of the first degree. Btw, speaking of rush hour, why do we even call it rush hour when no one is rushing. Looks like life is a waiting game. When I have to stand in line and wait, I take a book with me to ease the boredome. Have a great day.

Just like what you said time runs so slow when you got nothing to do.. I have experienced that a lot of times..

just like you, i experience time running slow when there's nothing to do at work! i just sit at my desk.. surf the net.. listen to music... then i look at the clock and realized that ten minutes just past after doing all those things. time goes by slowly when youre bored. just like waiting for anything or anyone...when i accompanied my mom at the clinic... we waited for the doctor to come it was for about an hour but for me it seemed like it took us the whole morning. so dragging...

Hi Bounce, Clock is running slow when I am at the end of the queue. This usually happens when I am paying my son's tuition fee. Most of the parents pay close to the examination dates and it is really a crowd there. It is a long queue of parents and students and you think it would take you an "eternity" to reach the head of the line. . It is something you had to endure at that moment as it is not possible to come at a later day.
