Groundhog Day : What about the rest of the world? When he goes back to Pitts?

What about the rest of the world? When he goes back to Pitts?

Yeah, even though he says, "Let's live here and rent to start," Phil, Rita and Larry will have to go back to Pitts that day, Feb 3rd, for their jobs and Phil and Rita to pack and get their stuff.

So what will it be like?
Will the rest of the world be the same since it also lived the same day over and over, only they didn't know about it just like the citizens of Puxatawny?
Or will everybody else have aged like 8-10 years of how long he was stuck in the time loop?

On a side note: I find it interesting that only Phil knows and can do things differently but no one else can.

Trump lies:
Mexico is going to pay for the wall.
I can stop federal funds.

Only Phil was changed for the experience. The rest of the group/city/country/world would have been unaware that anything happened between 05:59 and 06:00AM.

So you think the rest of the world was also stuck in the time loop also being unaware?

We think of time as something solid - that it moves from one place to another and in only one direction. But time is infinite and maybe fluid and circular. As far as everyone else was concerned, nothing happened. We think of time as something measured by our watches and calendars, but the time Phil spent in the loop could have been but the tiniest fraction of "real" time, or perhaps not even a fraction.

Maybe Phil's experience in the loop was 10 years by his perspective, but no time came off the "clock" for everyone else.

Read what Hawkings says about time. Scary stuff.

In any case, yes, everyone else was completely unaware.
