I forgot to set the clock back last night.  I got to work today ONE HOUR BEFORE I should have.  No wonder traffic was so light!

I forget to set my clocks but according to my goats and cows I am always late to work so it didn't help

You work on a Sunday ?

My phone (and thus, my alarm) automatically reset itself. 

But, I don't set an alarm and I don't work on Sundays.

In addition to forgetting to change his clock, he might have been thinking it was Monday.😈

What's worse is I still haven't changed the clocks back! When I was growing up, my dad was a fanatic and changed them around supper time the day before. It drove my mom and myself nuts. I'm the exact opposite where my wife and kids nag me in order to change them 😅

The one that might get me is the programmable coffee maker.

Skip, it sounds like you forgot to set your clock one hour and one day back...

Often.  When you are #3 and get no respect, the ONLY thing we have to offer is fast turnaround, cheap cost, and great customer service.

Actually, one Friday I drove into the parking lot and only the bosses car was there.  I figured that I drove to work on a Saturday by mistake.  In reality, it was a Friday and everyone was told to park in the back of the building!  We call this a "Senior Moment."

If you carefully time it, and can be at the right place, like on I-24 west of Chattanooga, you can achieve a TWO hour clock set back. I once had a backward calendar experience there on the 31st of the month. I crossed that spot just after midnight. I went from May 31, to June 1, BACK to May 31, and then back to June 1. Freaky deaky.

And I thought that was only possible in air travel while crossing the International Date Line.  Daylight Savings... no wonder the roosters started crowing later. 😂

Just after midnight you can get date backward flips at every time zone boundary, but they resolve within the hour.
