Is there a script that I could use to find the system time and reduce it by
16 minutes and display it in a MSGBOX as "The current time is..."
I don't have the rights to change the time on the computer so this seems
like the best way.

For windows scripts,go to TechNet at microsoft,locate the script center,
locate the library,a script might already be made.

DateAdd Function:

MsgBox DateAdd("n", -16, Now)

Performing this task with a script won't get you around the permissions
issue. Ask your system administrator to give you sufficient rights to change
the time.
