Can you give some examples of parts of the world that have different standard business hours from 9 to 5? In your explanation, don't use times as reference points. ... Yes, of course there are variations in standards; but that makes times all the more valuable as reference points. People in Saudi Arabia, for example, will have similar ideas of "what people do" around 6pm, and if they work with someone in Argentina, they can have an interesting conversation figuring out how Argentinians are different (and how they're the same). But if they lose time as a shorthand, it's suddenly really hard to have that conversation.
