        Then pick up an earlier shift, or move to Ecuador. Why do the rest of us have to adjust our clocks to accommodate you?

          The week after time change is the week with the highest heart attack rate and most car accidents. It’s dumb as shit.

            I know, I don’t want to change my clocks ever again. I’m on standard time right now where I am in the US. Unless something changes, I’ll have to change my clocks again in March, to DST. I don’t want to do that, but I’ll have to because of people like you who insist that EVERYONE must do what YOU want.

      Its nice to have sun light at the end of a slave wage shift. Schools and most jobs could start later. Most studies show humans do better when there is sunlight, because its what we had for millions of years to guide us.

        Well if we’re willing to change school and work schedules, why not have the slave wage shift start even earlier so that there’s even more sunlight hours during your free time? If you started your shift at midnight, you’d be coming home right about the time the sun’s coming up. Seriously. If the goal is to have as much of the winter sunlight hours line up with people’s after work time, that’d be about the best way to do it.

        Day and night don’t follow our clocks. The sun shines when the sun shines, days get shorter in the winter the further you are from the equator and we just have to live and work around that.
