Understanding Time Zone
You may have learned the knowledge of time zone in school. However, little people really understand it. Definitely, you do not know how to make money through time zone. Millions of years ago, the ancestor of human beings lived on trees. These monkeys could only go out to find food in daytime because of their eyes. They saw nothing in the evening. As a result, they had to adjust their behaviors according to the sun. Usually, in the morning, they had breakfast after sleeping for a whole night. In the noon, they had lunch when the sun is in the middle of the sky. Later, the temperature became the highest on the day. They might have a siesta. Later, they have to eat dinner to prepare for the long evening. Definitely, they would find food, play and date lovers except for eating and sleeping. It means that human beings behave according to the sun, not the moon or stars, although they are romantic. Currently, human beings still remain this habit, although they can see things in the evening through electric light. No matter which country they are living in, they still behave according to the sun. For example, they eat lunch where the sun is in the middle. Definitely, they no longer eat bananas on trees. Instead, they devour hamburgers and drink cola, which look like black blood. The time zone just shows the local position of the sun. For example, the Paris time is 12:00. It means that the sun is being in the middle of France. Then, the Frenchmen must be eating lunch at this moment. Similarly, the local time is 06:00 AM. Then, the local sun begins appearing. At this time, the local people would begin getting up. Now you can directly combine the behavior with time zone, without considering the position of the sun. It means that you can know what your international customers are doing or will do. You can list the table of the local time and your customers' behavior like: Local Time Behavior 06:00~07:00 Get up and have breakfast. 07:00~09:00 Drive to office and enjoy the traffic jam 09:00~12:00 Work in the office 12:00~13:00 Have lunch 13:00~17:00 Continues to work in the office like prisoners 17:00~19:00 Drive to home tiredly 19:00~20:00 Have supper 20:00~22:00 Watch soap opera or surf on the Internet 22:00~06:00 Sleep like pigs Definitely, different kinds of people do their own things. For housewives, they just work at home. For students, they can be free from school after 15:00. Your customers may be slightly different from the people mentioned above. You have to set the correct end time on Ebay, so that your customers can buy your products easily. For example, you should not set the end time at local time of 02:00, when your customers are sleeping. You can only sell products to the local ghosts at this time. Similarly, you cannot end your selling when your customers leave office and drive to home. They cannot drive a car and access the Internet at the same time. You have to know what your customers are doing or will do first, before deciding the local time. Finally, you can change the local time to Ebay time through this file.
