So who else forgot to "fall back" yesterday?

I only remebered when I heard the news at two ‘o’ clock announced as the one ‘o’ clock news. . . . . at this point I realised I had been awake an hour ealier than I thought.

When I worked for a well-known fast food chain I was to be there at 7:00 AM one Sunday morning in the spring, when the clocks move ahead one hour. This particular day was one week before the spring time change. A little after 6:00 that morning I got a call from the manager who asked me why I hadn’t come in yet. After telling him that I wasn’t due in until 7:00 he told me it was after 7:00 because of the time change. I told him that he was a week early, but he insisted that the time change was for that day. I finally convinced him to call for the official time and so he did. He called me back later to tell me I was right. I wanted to say, “See? Told you, so!” :rolleyes: .

We always set our clocks back in the morning . . . but yes I did remember about the time change as soon as I woke up. Then, still abed, Mr. S and I discussed our options of how best to use our extra hour. Funny, we both came up with the same idea. :smiley:

I’m so glad I’m not the only one.

For some reason my PC clock at home did not adjust automatically. But somehow the AM/PM got swapped (probably due to me mis-clicking when I rest manually). Kind of weirded me out this morning when it told me about the appointments I’d missed.

I did adjust all my clocks. But I missed something anyway.

I listen to a webcast of a show on Australia Radio National. An hour before its scheduled time, I thought I should check to see if it was on. It wasn’t, so I just waited an hour and tried again. It still wasn’t on, and I heard the announcer mention the local time. It was 2 hours later than I thought it should be. It finally dawned on me that clocks in Australia were adjusted in the opposite direction because it’s spring there, not autumn. So even though I tuned in an hour early, I was still an hour late.

I had no idea I was supposed to until I turned on my computer, which informed me that it had changed the clock. I panicked for about three seconds and checked online to verify the time change, so things worked out.

I remembered to spring forward.

I forgot all about changing my clocks so I was an hour late for work :frowning:

Oh well I’ll probably make up for it when we change them back and be an hour early for work :slight_smile:

One of these days I will work out this dang daylight savings thing!

One year, I left my apartment at 8 and got home at 7:30. I got up early on Sunday and went to the grocery store. I had the radio on in the car and on my way home they mentioned the time change. Now, my fiancee takes care of “remembering stuff” for me. So I didn’t forget to fall back this time, nor have I since we met. Before we started dating, I don’t think I ever remembered.
