Hating DST is stupid.
You get an extra hour of daylight after work to actually get things done outside.
If you never ever venture outside or don't work, I can see why that might not make sense.
You realize DST is zero sum, right? Anything you gain in the evening, you lose in the morning, and vice versa.
Also, anything you gain in the spring, you lose in the fall, and vice versa.
Nothing is ever gained.
It’s the change that is an extra inconvenience that causes disruption in people’s plans and circadian rhythms. Also, for the neurotic out there, the clock is technically wrong during DST as it doesn’t reflect the sun’s position in the sky.
Why do 9-5ers think everyone works 9-5 and we should change all of time to accommodate that instead of talking to your employers?
If it's that important to certain people then those workplaces can just have different seasonal hours. Why fuck with timekeeping because of a few peoples personal preference?
How does moving the clock forward an hour give you an extra hour of daylight after work?
As an example- If '12pm' is solar noon, 6am is solar Dawn and 6pm is Solar Sundown
If you move everything an hour forward, so now Solar Dawn is at 7am and Solar Sundown is at 7pm, but you still go to work at same times, you now miss an hour of sun in the morning and gain it in the evening.
So then how does moving the clock backward an hour give you an extra hour of daylight after work?
You can just get a job that starts earlier, or with flex time.
This just in, desk jobs that allow WFH don't exist.
