There's a dumb guy at my work who was told to email out a scheduled time in 24-hour format, and sincerely asked his ex-Army boss if military time had 100 minutes in an hour.
I’ve worked in multiple factories that used 24 hours/100 minutes for time cards. So 6:45 PM was 18.75.

This is how we do it at work because we bill clients in 15 minute increments. So you either bill 0.25, 0.5, or 0.75, or an even hour. Add as needed.

Did anyone actually call them minutes?

Looks like fractional hours to me.

Gotta nuke something
Fractional pay systems just meant I rounded up everyone to the nearest quarter-hour, when I was doing payroll.

I loved seeing other payroll people who popped their monocles when they found out you weren't paying per minute. Like, calm the gently caress down Karen, no one gives a poo poo if the company has to pay out an extra $5.

I just meant that -40 is the same in both C and F and for some reason I think it's funny. Like, the temperature scientist guys were like "gently caress it, it's too cold, let's just do the same so we can get out of here." And YES, in this scenario I am pretending Celcius and Fahrenheit were invented by two plucky grad students who were in competition but are now friends because they got too cold while simultaneously inventing temperature scales.

I don't know, I'm a pretty deep thinker.

You also can't buy a stone without an id and background checks. But at least there hasn't been a school stoning in years.
