The earth is a giant ball.
If you hold a ball in your hand in a dark room and turn a flash light on it there is just no way to make the light cover the ball all at once.
Part of it is light and part of it is dark.
This kind of illustrates how time zones work. Light and dark are a way of measuring time.

A lot of new elves get confused about time. It is hard for them to understand that while it is daytime perhaps where they are that it is actually, at the same time, night time for someone somewhere else. The world is a big place and it gets confusing.
You have already learned about sectors. Sectors are sections of the world. A time zone is just a part of a sector. Each sector will have a number of time zones.
Let’s say, for example, you’re a tracker elf in New Zealand. That is in sector #1.
If you have a friend who is an elf working in sector #5 you know that they are in a completely different time than you are. Way different time. In fact, it may be September 22nd for you in New Zealand, but it’s still only September 21st for your friend in Sector #5.
Time is different for everyone.
Let’s say you are in Los Angeles, where it is 12pm. On the other side of the country in New York City it is 3pm. In London it is 8pm. That’s because there are large distances between all of these cities.
That is why, when Santa flies, you can always hear what time HE is operating by through the Santa Updates, the news from North Pole Flight Command, and by listening to the radio news reports on Kringle Radio.
All of that stuff is available right here for you to follow.
What you need to concentrate on is knowing what sector it is you are in and keeping up with where Santa is.
