Memorandum

Dear Nitwit:

When filling out your timesheet, please remember that you add ‘12’ to get the military time. You do not simply put a ‘1’ in front of the number and leave it at that.

For example, 3:30 is not 13:30. 13:30 would be 1:30. Putting 13:30 instead of 15:30 will result in your timesheet reflecting a deficit of two hours you can’t explain to yourself, which in turn will mean you will sit at your desk wondering what happened to the lovely short day you were hoping for today, after two days with significant overtime.

Thank you for your immediate attention to the above.
