Why is time the same all over the world while other units of measurements depend on where you are? Distance has feet and meters, temperature has Celsius and Fahrenheit, etc.

It isn’t the same all over the world.
Like the other examples you gave, some cultures measure time differently. It’s just not as common as the other unit differences.
See lunar calendar, Georgian calendar, tribes who haven’t accepted Western time measurement, many measurements of time from a few hundred years ago etc etc.
There are probably no measurements which are standardised for every single person in the world, because of tribes with traditions.
