Inception? is it?

Blogs and Social Networking sites overflew with emotions and reviews the day 'Inception' was born. Was it a little over hyped? Doesn't matter. I'm not going with my review of that. My point is something very diffferent which i thought i can connect to the movie. (Do not expect anything serious)

My office timings are from 9.00 am to 5.30pm. That is 8 hours excluding half an hour lunch break. (I personally have the opinion, 8 hours of work is enough for a person for a day , The Clubs King theory says, 1 man day of work = 8 man hours of work). This 8.5 hours thingy is fed into the automated punching system, punched by a card(No, we don't like it biometric). Punching in late should be compensated by a punch out late, the same day (That's for the system. The real thing is how you deal with your boss). So there is this provision that, "If you punch in before 9.15am, you can punch out at 5.25pm". For a punch recorded at 09:15:00, punch out is at 17:25:00 for the system to mark you [Present]. BUT, for a 09:15:01 in you can go out(your card can g out) only at 17:45:01. This one second = twenty minutes is my problem. For an extra second waited in front of Signature towers traffic signal. I have to pay 20 minutes at the end of the day. Who is dreaming here? the system between 09:15:00 and 09:15:01? or me? whenever I'm spending that extra second in a traffic block? I hate different levels or dreams, and mostly this time lag!
