- 0:00Speaker 1: It's really all about having fun. Ero dot net, Aarre
- 0:03Speaker 1: dot net. I know what you're doing when you're driving
- 0:05Speaker 1: to work. I know what life is like when you're
- 0:07Speaker 1: sitting there at the office looking for a podcast that
- 0:10Speaker 1: doesn't sound like the rest of them. How about twenty
- 0:13Speaker 1: one different podcast I'm serious, twenty one different platforms on
- 0:16Speaker 1: one network. Aro dot Netroe dot net Enjoy your exploration.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Hates me that question? Guy? You know the dude that's
- 0:26Speaker 1: always asking questions because there's a lot of fun when
- 0:28Speaker 1: you do the research. For instance, why is being late
- 0:32Speaker 1: for work a party, funeral, or even a wedding accepted behavior? Plus,
- 0:38Speaker 1: in this modern age of having so much technology, is
- 0:43Speaker 1: the average person really ready for a doomsday event? Ooh,
- 0:47Speaker 1: my name is Erro. I'm a daily writer, a solid wolf.
- 0:50Speaker 1: I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study,
- 0:53Speaker 1: then activate. I call it the daily Mess, a chronological
- 0:57Speaker 1: walk through an everyday world. It is my morning writing
- 1:01Speaker 1: as a receiver of thoughts and ideas. We as people
- 1:03Speaker 1: tend to throw things to the side because we're gonna
- 1:06Speaker 1: deal with them later on. Well, when a subject arrives
- 1:09Speaker 1: inside of me, it is time to dig in. It's
- 1:12Speaker 1: still keeping that daily journal, but by doing the research,
- 1:16Speaker 1: the picture is going to become clearer. This is the
- 1:20Speaker 1: daily mess. And the question, of course, is why is
- 1:23Speaker 1: being late for anything acceptable. We're talking schools, businesses, interviews.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Late is what people seem to be doing. Well, here's
- 1:33Speaker 1: the strange fun fact here. It's an American thing to
- 1:37Speaker 1: be late. It is far, far, far from being universally accepted.
- 1:42Speaker 1: But why are we this way in the United States. Well,
- 1:45Speaker 1: there's four answers for you. People are over committed, fitting
- 1:49Speaker 1: way too much into one day. Number two. Technology has
- 1:53Speaker 1: created false confidence. Yeah, that GPS system, it's taught you
- 1:58Speaker 1: one thing to lead home ten minutes later than what
- 2:02Speaker 1: you normally did. Number three culture differences. Some cultures they
- 2:07Speaker 1: don't mess around with time. You better be there on time.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Number four social norms have shifted. Casual gatherings allow people
- 2:17Speaker 1: to be late. But but but but if you suffer
- 2:20Speaker 1: from chronic tardiness, the message you're pretty much sending out
- 2:23Speaker 1: is my time is more valuable than yours. M Okay,
- 2:29Speaker 1: we're talking employers, doctors, airlines. They don't mess around with punctuality.
- 2:36Speaker 1: There will be consequences in many places of business. But
- 2:40Speaker 1: maybe not yours for right now. One question though, that
- 2:43Speaker 1: came up was why are doctors always late? I mean,
- 2:47Speaker 1: if we're breaking down on people who are late all
- 2:50Speaker 1: the time, you gotta put doctors at the top of
- 2:52Speaker 1: the list. Research clearly shows there's always going to be
- 2:57Speaker 1: a moment or fifteen or twenty that it is going
- 3:00Speaker 1: to be late. Maybe it's because their last patient needed
- 3:04Speaker 1: more time, maybe there was an emergency, too many appointments
- 3:08Speaker 1: and the paperwork. Oh my god, it has been proven
- 3:12Speaker 1: that doctors spend way too much time receiving and reviewing
- 3:16Speaker 1: test results and completing medical records. Oh, by the way,
- 3:21Speaker 1: and if it is your choice to be late when
- 3:24Speaker 1: it comes to me, you're never going to be accepted.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Ooh ooh, ooh ooh. Coming up next, are people really
- 3:33Speaker 1: ready for a doomsday event? Hey? Thanks for coming back
- 3:39Speaker 1: to the daily mess. Are people ready for this thing
- 3:42Speaker 1: called a dooms day event? Or is it just procrastination?
- 3:46Speaker 1: You know, the invisible peacemaker. It's called how people cope
- 3:50Speaker 1: with uncertain moments. Procrastinating creates invisible peace, but not preparedness.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Research shows if people spend and every day expecting a disaster,
- 4:02Speaker 1: they're not going to get any work done. What they're
- 4:05Speaker 1: going to be doing is they're going to be sitting
- 4:06Speaker 1: around worrying and blaming somebody from a misbalance in the
- 4:10Speaker 1: family structure. Here's how real people think they know bad
- 4:15Speaker 1: things can and will probably happen. People tend to put
- 4:19Speaker 1: preparing aside because threat seems to be so damn far away.
- 4:23Speaker 1: If a Doom's Day event did go into effect tomorrow,
- 4:27Speaker 1: studies do show that many people would realize they were
- 4:31Speaker 1: not prepared as they wish they would have been. This
- 4:35Speaker 1: doesn't mean someone's being careless with time. The actual reflection
- 4:39Speaker 1: is a very human tendency to prioritize today's immediate scenes.
- 4:44Speaker 1: And here's the thing. Future risks exist, but they're not
- 4:49Speaker 1: pushing us in the direction of finding answers to questions
- 4:53Speaker 1: that people have after the Doom's Day event. You know,
- 4:56Speaker 1: there are some people in the mental health business that
- 4:59Speaker 1: say that getting ready for a doomsday event is pretty
- 5:01Speaker 1: much philosophical in the way of displaying safety first, it
- 5:07Speaker 1: creates an illusion of being prepared or unprepared. Genuine peace
- 5:13Speaker 1: will always come from acceptance, rather than avoiding the possibility
- 5:18Speaker 1: of something happening altogether out of sight, out of mind.
- 5:22Speaker 1: If you don't see it today, does it really exist? Ah?
- 5:26Speaker 1: Maybe not a lot of deniers, too many of them.
- 5:31Speaker 1: I'm Eryl and that's the daily mess.
