is not true that time is short: the truth is that we lose a lot.
The other day I "lost" time to sign the exam paper. When asked by the professor "who has yet to deliver?" I said, raising his hand. These, seeing that I was the last one left, I said that I still had only 30 seconds to deliver then it would go. All teachers do it, mind you, but amazed by him began to count. I could hear him from afar: 29 ... 28 ... 27 ... I was still putting his signature on the second of three sheets. Handed while his mouth ticked 16 ... 15 ... I looked for a moment and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
