        I never understood this argument because farmers are the least likely job to use the clock to tell them when to work… The idea of a farmer waiting for 8am to clock in is ridiculous.

        Why cant farmers just set their alarm an hour earlier though, no need to drag everyone else into this

          Apparently this was a myth, but I’m against it, I voted in CA to pass a law where we don’t have to do it and yet we still do. No one wants day light savings time

        That’s a myth. Farmers in the US lobbied against the change. Animals and crops don’t care about the time, so it just meant they had to start work earlier on the clock.

        If you check farmers’ out they can still do the same amount of work in daylight hours.

        Daylight savings’ history is actually more white than you think. The law was passed by politicians that just wanted to golf earlier. Farmers are commonly used as the excuse because every accusations is a confession.
