Sitting at work
From where I am sitting, the back
corner desk of the storage room at my work in the RB, tracking the passage of time
can be rather interesting.
Ignoring the clock, knowing when an
hour has passed is the easiest. At fifteen past every hour, at least two
workers in blue shirts get up to check all the courts.
On top of that, one can notice when
classes are about mid way through based on the yelling and sports balls hitting
the metal doors to my right, which can be rather defining.
There are no windows to see the
passage of the sun, but a ding from the front desk bell normally means that 50
minutes have passed as instructors trade equipment for various classes.
The work trashcan on the other hand
is pretty dang accurate at calling out mid day, because the remains of hastily
prepared lunches start to reach the brim, also the smell coming from an over
worked microwave can give way.
About 40 minutes later, an employee
starts to recap the Netflix episode they just finished and that is when I know
15 past the hour is getting pretty close again.
Fun! I also did time tracking at work
ReplyDeleteIt's funny to notice the different things people do routinely without even looking at a clock.
