Just think of all the
time you wasted waiting for something to happen. And then think of how the accumulated time could sum-up your entire life if you wait even longer! Here are some things you wait for:
1. The elevator - from 1 to 10 minutes everyday.
2. Your computer to boot up - from 2 minutes to never.
3. An additional 15 minutes to 1 hour waiting for cars to move in a traffic jam.
4. 3 seconds to a minute for your favourite web page to load. The same applies to applications.
5. Waiting in a line-up with more than four people from 1 minute to days depending on the reason for the queue.
6. Waiting for your car to get fixed/maintained for 8 hours or more for an overhaul to 15 minutes for an oil change.
7. Waiting for your food to cook for 30 seconds in the microwave to several hours in the oven.
8. Being put on hold on the telephone for 1 to 60 minutes.
9. Waiting for ideas to come in creating new nodes/writeups! (From instantaneous to months or years.)
10. Waiting for writeups to be cooled/C!. (10 seconds to never.)
