Birds Nest Changes

Military time saves a lot of misunderstandings. Midnight is 00:00, noon
is 12:00.

When I started driving transit, I said to my boss, after he assigned me
a duty that required getting to the operating base at 04:00, " As far
as I'm concerned, 4 o'clock only happens once a day." His response -
"That's right, in the afternoon it's 16:00".

Back when British Rail went on the 24-hour system, as friend called to
find out the time of the last train back to the town where our college
was. "Twenty to eleven" was the reply. He showed up at the station
around 10:30 pm only to be told the last train had left. He said, "but
they said it was at twenty to eleven". The response was "Yes, sir, it
was".
