Interesting calendar quirk :-)



I use my PDA (now an Android) to record my work hours as I have been
doing 15 years. (Old habbit from being a contactor for 20 years). With
the Android, it initially sets the current time, and I manually set my
expected departure time at 5:30. This morning is was 8:08AM to 5:30PM.
The accuracy does not really matter, but it's just easier to accept the
start time as actual. I'm not going to get docked if I work 7:59 hours
:-). I happened to check my Outlook calendar, and it says 8:09AM to
5:31PM. Google Calendar that it syncs from is identical to my Android as
expected. As I mentioned it really does not matter, and I would not even
have noticed the actual times but I moved my mouse across it. I tend to
be a bit anal about time because I've been burned by source code control
systems where a 1 minute difference in a time stamp can make a huge
difference if you are doing a complex build.
