problem with scheduling a job

I scheduled 2 Oracle jobs to run on IBM AIX 4.3.3 at
06:50 and 06:58 on 02/02/03 with the below syntax:

$ at 06:50 02/02/03 /orac/ora11/temp/sun_job1.sh
Job oracle.1044175800.a will be run at Sun Feb 2 06:50:00 2003.


$ at 06:58 02/02/03 /orac/ora11/temp/sun_job2.sh
Job oracle.1044176280.a will be run at Sun Feb 2 06:58:00 2003.


But I went back on the korn shell to double check the time the job will run using
"atq", it is giving me a different time. Can any one explain what's going on?

$ atq
oracle.1044175800.a Sun Feb 2 03:50:00 EST 2003
oracle.1044176280.a Sun Feb 2 03:58:00 EST 2003

Thanks,
Ted


NOTE:
My Server is on the EAST COAST of the US but the atp command seems to specify a west coast time.

Also when I type date from the kornshell. it gives me the date time in Eastern Standard Time
