Pioneer1 Posted Sunday at 01:48 PM Report Posted Sunday at 01:48 PM I believe I did a thread on this before but...... Once again, with all of the talk and spamming and bullshit all over the internet and social media STILL very little to no mention of Daylight Savings Time and how the clocks must be turned back. Even the so-called "New" channels and sites have barely said a word about it. It makes you wonder where people's priorities are. Perhaps they're used to their computers and "smart" phones doing it automatically that most people don't give it a second thought.
ProfD Posted Sunday at 02:49 PM Report Posted Sunday at 02:49 PM The local news reminds folks to turn their clocks back. As @Pioneer1 mentioned, our technology does it automatically on smartphones and computers. Some folks don't even bother flipping time back and forth on older clocks.
Pioneer1 Posted Sunday at 03:05 PM Author Report Posted Sunday at 03:05 PM What about stoves, refrigerators, microwaves, wall clocks at work? There are a ton of clocks that don't operate on "smart" technology that need to be manually configured. We have a a lot of immigrants and foreigners in general in the United States who have no idea about "daylight savings time"; yet they work and go to school right along side us. It seems that nobody is "in charge" of coordinating things to keep society on the same page.

Someone who cares enough will go around changing the time on those appliances and clocks. 4 hours ago, Pioneer1 said: We have a a lot of immigrants and foreigners in general in the United States who have no idea about "daylight savings time"; yet they work and go to school right along side us. Right now, many of them have more immediate concerns rather than worry about what time it is and whether it's an hour behind or ahead. 4 hours ago, Pioneer1 said: It seems that nobody is "in charge" of coordinating things to keep society on the same page. Daylight Savings Time is not a major concern or societal issue in the grand scheme of things.
Pioneer1 Posted yesterday at 12:02 AM Author Report Posted yesterday at 12:02 AM ProfD Someone who cares enough will go around changing the time on those appliances and clocks. If a nigga won't change the damn SMOKE ALARM when it's chirping off in the background, what makes you think they care enough to change those things either...lol. Right now, many of them have more immediate concerns rather than worry about what time it is and whether it's an hour behind or ahead The making of a vicious cycle..... The fact that they HAVE more immediate concerns to worry about is a RESULT f not caring what time it really is. Looking for another job to put some food on the table is one of them. You don't know how many people I've seen get written up and even fired from work for coming in late....because of daylight savings time. Now granted, this ONE TIME ALONE wasn't enough to get them fired...it was just the last straw. When that White man comes out and sees half of his workforce missing in the morning and his face turns beet red....people get called in the office left and right. Daylight Savings Time is not a major concern or societal issue in the grand scheme of things I'm not a big fan of Racist Rudy Giuliani, however one thing he did that I learned from was the method he used to reduce crime in New York....called the "broken window policy", or something to that effect. The method centered round the reasoning when society lets minor issues like broken windows and people littering in the streets occur with indifference...pretty soon it leads to MAJOR issues like rape and murder and open dope dealing occurring with that same indifference. That logic makes sense. When people are so indifferent that they don't care enough to pay attention to the actual time and make sure the time is accurate....that type of pattern seems be a theme that follows their their other activities in life.

If a fire breaks out in his place, he might have a chance to learn. 47 minutes ago, Pioneer1 said: The fact that they HAVE more immediate concerns to worry about is a RESULT f not caring what time it really is. Worrying about being snatched up and deported isn't predicated on knowing the time. 47 minutes ago, Pioneer1 said: You don't know how many people I've seen get written up and even fired from work for coming in late....because of daylight savings time. Now granted, this ONE TIME ALONE wasn't enough to get them fired...it was just the last straw. Right. Getting fired is usually the end result of several infractions. If that person doesn't care enough about their job, nobody else can save them. 47 minutes ago, Pioneer1 said: When people are so indifferent that they don't care enough to pay attention to the actual time and make sure the time is accurate....that type of pattern seems be a theme that follows their their other activities in life. Just like foreigners being indifferent to whatever is happening in their home countries, there's no need in caring about a person's situation more than they do.
Pioneer1 Posted 4 hours ago Author Report Posted 4 hours ago ProfD If a fire breaks out in his place, he might have a chance to learn. The type of people who ignore chirping smoke alarms where they stay are usually the SAME type of people who call their MAMA or BROTHER when a fire breaks out instead of 911. That should give you an idea of their chances of actually "learning" from a crisis...lol. But WE can learn from THEM. Worrying about being snatched up and deported isn't predicated on knowing the time Lol.... Aren't Visas and Green Cards dated with expirations? Like I said, with some people there is a definite pattern of neglect and irresponsibility that follows them around like a shadow.

They snatching up folks who fit the profile. This isn't broken windows. It's more like shaking trees. 3 hours ago, Pioneer1 said: Like I said, with some people there is a definite pattern of neglect and irresponsibility that follows them around like a shadow. Don't waste any time or energy worrying about them. Stay out of their way too.
