RE: What do you mean when you say "a few minutes" and what do you expect when you are told "a few minutes"?

[nrich239]

I answered
I mean in 5 or less minutes and I expect them in more than 5 minutes

I've had to adjust this answer after moving from PA to NC. It used to be 5 min or less for both me and them but here in NC, most of the locals run on SST - Southern Standard Time which is about 15 min behind on everything
