Stripper Time

Since we kinda don’t need to know dates or times, this is how we roll:

Moderately: The most commonly used. As in, “moderately on time.” Which is to say, within a half an hour of the appointed time I’m theoretically supposed to be there. If I’m supposed to be somewhere at 8pm, 8:30pm is still moderately on time.

Slightly: As in, “slightly late.” If it’s around 30-45 minutes after when I’m theoretically supposed to be there, I’m slightly late. Not enough to really be a concern, but no longer honestly able to remotely be called any sort of ‘on time.’

Mostly: As in, “mostly on time.” That’s startlingly close to on time. Within 10-15 minutes of the appointed time I’m supposed to be somewhere. The appropriate amount of time during which you can show up to work and still say you were actually, legitimately, more-or-less ‘on time.’

Hella: Rarely used, if ever. The closest to exact. “Hella on time” always has a note of awe and surprise and perhaps even rapture. ‘Dude, we were hella on time today!’ is cause for celebration. 8:02pm bitches! Conversely, “hella late” might be grounds for not showing up at all.
