Pretty sure they're saying when people are asked to do things they'll say they need 5. Loads of people say "Gimme a minute" or "Give me a sec" and then come back like an hour later.

People are seemingly missing the point of "base unit". The smallest amount is 5 minutes. Which in all respect is true. I'll confirm what I'm saying in a bit though.

If 5 minutes is after this…
by Anonymous2 years ago
For me it's whatever amount of minutes gets me to the next half-hour or hour mark. Then I'll start. (Theoretically.)

I think this is accurate. I blame my kindergarten teachers who would end recess by shouting, "five minutes," and I would run up and get in line. Five minutes seemed like forever standing in that line.
by Anonymous2 years ago
how did you figure this out>?
by Anonymous2 years ago
You're obviously an amateur. I negotiate my procrastinations in base units of months or years. The juice has to be worth the squeeze, right?
by Anonymous2 years ago
... i would challenge this, but I need to get more material.
I'll go do that in like... five minutes.

Honestly yeah. Sometimes I like to think of stuff based on stuff I'm looking at. I will often stand up staring into the distance thinking of things. I do this for quite a while, so yeah at least 5 minutes.
I am procrastinating on the thing I was doing before thinking.
I wish I wasn't so lazy and bad with words that could write my ideas down.
by Anonymous2 years ago
I'll procrastinate later
by Anonymous2 years ago
If you haven't wasted 30 minutes are you really procrastinating?
by Anonymous2 years ago
Give me a minute to think about that.

Can I have 5 minutes to think about this?

Girlfriend: "Can you give me a ride to the store?"
ME: "Sure are you ready?"
Girlfriend: "I just need to put on my shoes."
Me (15 minutes later) "Let's go!"
Girlfriend: "Don't rush me. I'm working on it. It makes me nervous when you always rush me."
Me: "I'll be in the car."

there is no such thing as a 10 minute meeting
by Anonymous2 years ago
So there is a minimum?
by Anonymous2 years ago
I will have to get back to you on that
by Anonymous2 years ago
I agree but often the base unit is not used always. Often, when waking up, I give myself 3 minutes and 32 seconds to get up.
