Time in Israel
Israeli's have clocks but I'm not sure they use them. Its interesting that for a country where everyone goes to the army, a country that uses military time (ex. 19:30) people are always late. I had this interview for an internship today that after 3 time changes prior to the meeting, I'm told to come back in an hour and a half. By the way the internship seemed it would probably be a waste of time. Buses never run on schedule, waiting in line is optional, people seem to always be late... others agree. I'm not trying to complain but time is a important part of culture. For example my Japanese roommate is always early to class. He will be leaving the apartment while I'm making breakfast. One time I'm walking to class and he comes running by me sprinting so as not to be late... Isrealis could learn from Shohei Yoshida.
