Summer time - an elastic concept
The grey days are finally over: in the morning the sun is already shining brightly in your face at 7 a.m. and in the evening it is still light after work. So I'm taking advantage of this opportunity to introduce you to the many faces of time.
Winter and summer time: the love-hate relationship
Agreed, there's not much to say here: a welcome blessing in winter as you can sleep an extra hour (which can feel like an eternity) and a terrible curse in summer as you're deprived of an entire night's sleep. Nevertheless (and due to the current situation), it often leaves a bad aftertaste, because no one is really powerful enough to know exactly when the clock needs to be set an hour forward and when it needs to be set an hour back.

As always, we at digitec have the solution: radio alarm clocks. These things are the Albert Einsteins of timepieces and adjust to the correct time all by themselves as if by magic. So you can sit back, relax and be surprised the next morning whether you're woken up an hour early or late. PS: On 26.3.17 at 2:00 a.m. you have to adjust all clocks to 3:00 a.m. - so don't forget and set your alarm clock today! [[product:442790,5907638,5806867]]
Leisure time: the queen of time
I can't help a tear or two rolling down my face when I have to write about leisure time during working hours... sorry: allowed! To follow on seamlessly from the above, I'd like to return to the topic of summer, even though the much-loved spring is still to come. The pollen is flying, the wasps, mosquitoes and other bugs are flying anyway, public transport is slowly turning into saunas and the workplace is becoming the "place to be... NOT". [[video:50826]]
But we're still all looking forward to this beautiful time of year. Cosy outdoor barbecues, open-air concerts, spontaneous friend-versus-foe football matches, lakes and rivers for wet fun and a boom in ice cream. To help you stay cool in the office during the hot season and enjoy a bit of a leisure feeling, I recommend my must-haves for your workplace below. [[product:6058721,5983057,2405579]]
Punctuality (sorry, punctuality doesn't fit the concept): The unknown
Being punctual is considered a virtue in Switzerland. Okay, there are still some differences in terms of cantons and mentalities. But on the whole, we are a punctual people. You'd think so... because punctuality is a bit like Donald Trump, the FCZ or Rivella Yellow - you either love it or you hate it. [[image:7508661]]
But don't worry, thanks to our extensive range of watches, you don't even have to dig your smartphone out of your pocket to check the time - you can even have it on your arm at all times and with all the great additional features, you don't have to miss out on your WhatsApp messages, Snapchats and Facebook posts either. It's un-f***ing-believable how smart these things are these days. [[product:5891426,5711690,262317]]
Meal time: the essentials
Sometimes I personally feel like I only get up in the morning so that I can look forward to lunch. I don't usually eat breakfast (the most important meal of the day, my arse), which makes the anticipation of lunch almost immeasurable. Some of my fellow human beings actually only eat so that they don't starve or because that's just how it's done. For me, this borders on complete perplexity: eating is a lifestyle, a pleasure, fun, satisfaction and simply awesome. [[image:7508659]]
At digitec, we unfortunately don't offer you any food, but we do have a few very useful gadgets related to food intake: With the lightning-fast speedster you can fetch your lunch yourself, with the modern mobile you can order your well-deserved lunch directly to your workplace - yes, with today's smartphones you can even make calls - and you can drink the 24-pack of Red Bull while you wait for your food (or grab it out of the air yourself).

Working hours: the boss
Yes, that's a must, because without her you wouldn't be able to afford all of the above. We spend 5/7 of the week in that ominous place, together with many other fellow sufferers, waiting for the end of the working day. Or - as is the case with me - for the next meal. [[image:7508684]]
In order to sweeten up my already super busy working day, I like to use the following tools. It's the perfect way to kill time, minutes and hours fly by and there's hardly a second left to think about pointless things. What more could you want? #likeaboss [[product:5997650,343150,5824205]]
Time out: the overdue one
I have finished. Although there are probably thousands of lame phrases, stupid proverbs and inane jokes on the topic out there, I'm now concluding my remarks to give you some time to think, reflect and ponder. Finish reading this article, sit back and relax. You have truly earned it. [[image:7508904]]
I would like to conclude my monologue with a few tidbits that also revolve around the same topic, but had to be omitted due to lack of time - until now, the present. But now it really is time to stop. I hope you enjoyed the article... time will tell, as they say. ho ho ho ho [[product:5612919,5629228,5621553]]
When I'm not stuffing my face with sweets, you'll catch me running around in the gym hall. I’m a passionate floorball player and coach. On rainy days, I tinker with my homebuilt PCs, robots or other gadgets. Music is always my trusted companion. I also enjoy tackling hilly terrain on my road bike and criss-crossing the country on my cross-country skis.
