People wait

  • on average of 20 minutes a day for the bus or train

  • 32 minutes whenever they visit a doctor

  • 28 minutes in security lines whenever they travel

  • 21 minutes for a significant other to get ready to go out

  • 13 hours annually waiting on hold for a customer service

  • 38 hours each year waiting in traffic

  • 18 weeks in a life time waiting at a red light

From waiting in line to order coffee to getting ready in the mornings, a human spends approximately 6 months of one’s life waiting in line for things.

Hold, please

No one likes being out on hold - yet an average person spends about 43 days on hold with automated customer service in one lifetime.

Hello?

The phone - you’d use it to call someone. That function has morphed along with the times.

  • We spend 23 days a year on our phones

  • 90 minutes a day

  • 9 years of the average person’s life

  • 24% browsing the web

  • 57% don’t need an alarm clock anymore

  • 50% use the phone to tell time
