- As many people are without work, many men have a lot of time to kill and they spend countless hours in cafes every single day.
- There are few extra curricular options in most Albanian towns, so time is often spent talking to your family, neighbors and friends.
- Few people have many places to be throughout a given day. That said, waiting for a bus to take off in five minutes most likely means forty-five minutes.
- You never know what someone really means when they throw out an estimated time for arrival or departure.
- When making a visit to an Albanian friend or family, however, it is polite to be at least five minutes late. Better to be later than earlier for a visit.
- Business and social situations are both flexible in terms of time. Even meetings at the municipality are open for being canceled at the last minute or started a half an hour late.
