Great answer...but nope... you got the HINT #1: waiting part right.
Happy belated bday bauie25!!
HINT #1.5: I personally don't have to do this during my work day only because it is not an option, but I bet about 65-70% of people don't really have a choice if they want to do their job.

I NEVER said "stock brockers"... I said, "on wall street in new york".....(trying to get you to think of buildings that would have elevators)
Quote:

Trying to make you think of things people do on the way to work, after work, before & durring lunch/smoke breaks, & meetings. I was trying to make you think about your routines step by step! LOL
***********
If nobody guessed, my next hint was going to be HINT: forget the whole work day.... what might you wait for if you were going to a Doctor appointment or maybe when you go to the hospital to visit someone. FOR SURE I would think someone would have guessed from THAT!!

Ooh okay.. guess my thinking was wrong.
Hint #682 could have been: Sometimes babies come 9 months later if this gets stuck.
Definitely would have gotten that one! LOL
