The office speed demon found himself stuck behind me during my EOC into work. This is a coastdown from 45 MPH (in a 35 limit) to a left turn to a right turn into the parking lot to a 180 into my usual parking space. He made a mild complaint about being held up, so I asked how much he thought he was delayed. He figured about 30 seconds. Then we sat down and calculated. Turned out the real delay was four seconds. He hasn't complained since.
