Brain Function & Verbal Dexterity Warning...
Times Zones 101:
Created especially for you Early Bird East Coasters

We're located on the Kitsap Peninsula of Washington which is across the bay from Seattle. Since moving to the peninsula, our minds have drifted over to "Island Time" however we're forcing our bodies to work on Pacific Standard Time. Since buying a diamond is obviously a priority in your life, we recommend setting the clocks in your office and on your computer and phone to coincide with Pacific Standard Time until you have completed your journey. Since changing your co-workers desk clock might require a staff meeting, schematics, and a study of the earth's rotation, we offer the following scenarios to make your life simple.

East Coast @ 9:00 a.m. - You fire up your computer and call us on the phone. Its 6:00 a.m. on the island and "In your dreams" is a reality.

East Coast @ 12:00 Noon - You're thinking about lunch and getting punchy because we didn't answer the phone when you called this morning. You didn't leave a message, so we didn't call you back. Meanwhile it's 9:00 a.m. on the island and we're stumbling around the office, stirring our coffee and questioning the meaning of life as it relates to the importance of coffee.  We're not capable of doing anything more serious than that for about an hour... Believe it! You can call, but we're still trying to remember the combination to the vault so don’t be offended if we sound distracted.  Did we mention that we need coffee?

East Coast @ 1:00 p.m. - You have indigestion from the taxi ride back to work and we're busy looking for a pencil. It's now 10:00 a.m. on the island, the fog is lifting and life is good! We’re looking out over the bay and trying to figure out how to skip out for the day and go wake boarding.  Yes we realize that the water is cold, why do you think we're still here?

East Coast @ 5:00 p.m. - You're finishing your day, but it's only 2:00 p.m. here on the West Coast and we're still trying to get off the phone long enough to eat breakfast. Go ahead and call, it's the perfect time. Heck, not even your boss can complain about your using the computer now because you're off the clock and you can call us on our toll free number so it won't cost him a dime. Of course if your boss is a cheap skate, you should call our regular office number because he's obviously not paying you enough and we'll deny ever talking to anybody from your office.  Plausible Deniability, think about it, we don't know you.

East Coast @ 9:00 p.m. - You're at home and we're still here. It's only 6:00 p.m. our time and we'd be lucky to escape. Yes you can often reach us during the evening while you're at home, but it’s a hit or miss kind of thing.

If by chance you leave a message and we call you back at an inopportune time, such as when you are standing next to your fiancé. Feel free to blow us off as if we were just another telemarketer "I told you before that I'm happy with my long distance service! Don't call me again!" we'll understand that you're going to call us back later...
