How so? Becky, I need you on that zoom call on Wednesday, 00:30 with our distributor Carlos in Mexico, the tax agent Amahle in South Africa, and our ship Captain who's currently in Malaysia.

No confusion. Everyone knows what time they need to turn on the PC.

No conversions for PC times, no shipping time charts, none of it.

You don’t see an inconvenience living in a place where a restaurant’s hours are

Wed 9pm - Thu 7am

Thu 9pm - Fri 6am

Fri 9pm - Sat 9am

And it seems perfectly fine to have it be ambiguous when you say something is tomorrow if you mean after lunch or after you sleep?

You can’t think of any clerical, banking, or technical inconveniences with having things carry over into the next day in the middle of the day?

No that makes very easy sense to me lmfao. Maybe you're just overthinking it?

First off quit using pm and am. It's a 24:00 hour system. Why are you denoting different days when it starts in one day?

Bank Hours:

Wednesday 2200-0700

Thursday 2200-0700

Friday 2200-0500

Sat sun Closed

Bam, now everyone in the world knows when they're open. Now I know if I'm road tripping I can stop at the bank without having to think about whether I crossed a time zone.

You are definitely underthinking it.

Imagine in another locale store hours:

Mon 23:00 - 10:00 (Tue)

Wed 0:00 - 10:00 (this is the very next day in real time, but since it opens one hour later it’s now entirely in the next day)

Doesn't seem like it judging by the non-reactionary responses lol.

Hell, we're going to actually need this system of time once we start spacefaring so we have a solar standard.

Seems like you’re just hand-waving the arguments against it, instead of considering what life would be like. There would be virtually no benefit but definite annoyances.

Ok now I know you're just fucking with me lmfao.

I feel like if wednesday at 3pm is the same worldwide, Thursday never comes.
