Need More Time?


Does anybody need more time in their day? I think I'm gonna invent a new time system that is based on the metric system. None of this 60/60/24/7/365 business. My time system is gonna be based on one number: 10. Motivations behind this new system include the following: I never have enough time in my day, there is too much time spent at work, not enough time spent on hobbies and exercise and such, and I always seem to be tired (mostly due to erratic schedule but hang with me here).

Oh, and also I have trouble reading a clock that has only hands. It requires thinking and interpreting and the like. I like a straight-up digital readout that plainly spells what time it is (actually for the sake of this post I made that argument, but I actually like the clocks with hands much better - they are classic and elegant)

My system won't be messing around with any of that AM/PM business, just what time you see is what time you get. There would be 100 seconds in a minute, 100 minutes in an hour, 10 hours in a day. 10 Days in a month, and awwww forget about it, this system takes way too much thought to think up. I make a motion to stick with the current system.
