Day 80 at Maqbool Bhat Shaheed Square - Dadyaal.
 |
| 0857hrs |
My punctuality deficit has increased to 214 minutes.
Being punctual consistently without fail is a highly evolved skill. Despite decreasing our deficit from a high of 580 minutes a few weeks ago down to 157 minutes yesterday, one is disappointed to go behind once again. The euphoria of many days of decreasing the deficit is less than the disappointment of increasing the deficit, albeit even for a day. The plus side is that this setback today makes me more determined to never be late again.
There are no valid excuses for such a lapse but I did work throughout the day yesterday before travelling in the evening and not sleeping till way beyond 0200hrs this morning.

290 minutes (i.e. 4 hours 50 minutes) late (as aggregate over 5th 10 days)
n.b. I was as late in these past 10 days as I was throughout the whole first 40 days. Which means that my punctuality is rapidly dwindling!
Cumulative punctuality deficit over 50 days = 580

Thus, we've beaten the punctuality deficit for the first time.
Cumulative punctuality deficit over 60 days = 507

Cumulative punctuality deficit over 80 days = 214
1 day late of 10 (viz. 10%)
Which accumulates as 42 days late of 80 (viz. 53%)
In these 80 days, we dropped our punctuality deficit to a peak of 580 minutes (9 hours and 40 minutes!) on Day 50.
However, by Day 80 we have pegged it back to 214 minutes (3 hours and 34 minutes).
We were late on:
6 days of 10, in 1st 10 days
8 days of 10, in 2nd 10 days
9 days of 10, in 3rd 10 days
7 days of 10, in 4th 10 days
Thus, we were late on 30 of the first 40 days! (viz. 75% late!) and by 290 minutes in total!
8 days of 10, in 5th 10 days
1 day of 10, in 6th 10 days
2 days of 10, in 7th 10 days
1 day of 10, in 8th 10 days
Thus, we were late on 12 of the second 40 days (viz. 30% late) and we actually gained 76 minutes in punctuality, though overall (over 80 days) our punctuality deficit still has 214 minutes to make up for (from the first 40 days)
Total: 42 days late of 80 = 53% late!
By Day 40 we were 75% late, thus we have gained an improvement of 22% in punctuality.
In short, we have improved our punctuality markedly, especially since Day 50.
