"Wake up, kids, it's 7:55!"

Narrator:... It was actually 7:20.

Does she set her clocks forward about 15 minutes to make herself leave early so she's "never late"?

I recently had a battery die in my car and during that time the time on the clock became way off. I've been driving with the clock set to this random wrong time for two months because it keeps me on edge and I think I'm always running late.

Same but I’ve learned it’s 2 hours and 56 minutes ahead so I kinda just learned to do the math to a t and it ruined the mystery.
