Time Crisis

The clock on my phone is set precisely in sync to Philippine Standard Time. Everything is as it should be.

One thing I don't understand is why people set their clocks in advance. What difference does it make? The reasoning is that it helps them be earlier by making it seem like the time is later than it is, thus, they compensate. But what's the point since you KNOW it's advanced and even on a subconscious level you probably include the advance time in your calculations.

"Hey, we better hurry up! It's almost six o'clock."

"Don't worry, that clock is advanced by ten minutes."

See?
