Code not entering if statement.

I can't for the life of me figure out why this script won't enter this if statement. I must be overlooking something so I'm hoping a fresh set of eyes can see if there is something I'm overlooking.

Basically the code works fine and get's to the statement "under 1 minute, waiting for "+waiftFor. But when the next set of if statment checks happens ( if (getPlayTime >= waitFor ) nothing happens. It goes on until infinity.

for anyone curious "getPlayTime" is a pause variable replacement for Time.time. And yes, it is keeping track of Time.time as it should. everything is working fine, up until this if statement.

I know this is somewhat hard to follow...it's a work in progress.
