Daily routines treat time as objective despite its contested meaning

Evidence

Space and time are basic categories of human existence. Yet we rarely debate their meanIngs; we tend to take them for granted, and give them common-sense or selI::Cevident attributions. We record the passage of time in seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, decades, centuries, and eras, as if everything has its place upon a single objective time scale. Even though time in physics is a difficult and contentious concept, we do not usually let that interfere with the common-sense of time around which we organize daily routines. — David Harvey, The Condition of Postmodernity, 1260
