Whether it is cooking, or setting timers, is anyone else able to very accurately predict timers.

E.g.cset the oven for 35 minutes, then walk into the kitchen with 1 min left on the timer?

My job requires a lot of running tests that take half an hour, 1 hour etc. I have been doing some other things, and wondered “the test has to be done now”. As I am taking my phone out of my pocket, my alarm goes.

And this is my work phone, not my fun phone! Work phone normally sits on my desk all day getting ignored!!

    My partner has this but in the most annoying way possible. He’ll set a timer on our oven, then go sit down in the other room. At some point, inevitably, he will become convinced that he forgot to set the timer. After me failing to convince him this happens every time, he’ll get up to check. There will be 1 minute remaining on the timer.

    Every. Damn. Time!
