Only now the sun is gonna come up at a time when most people are awake and not set on your way home to work. I live on the western edge of a time zone and daylight savings time means the sun rises around 8 and sets at 5. That means the sun is up while i am at work, and i get of work just in time to watch a million deer try to cross the road on my way home. And I’m not even as far north as a lot of other people in the US. It’s garbage
There’s no law forcing employers to set their work hours fixed all year long, they could just as well change their own working hours based on the season and when the sun rises/sets.
That seems more or less the common sense approach if they are gonna do away with daylight savings time. But that would be too much like right, I bet most employers would be like fuck that.
Were in normal time right now and the sun sets at 4:00. You want permanent DST.
Lot of down votes for a fact. Lemmings are wild.
Or employers could just move their work schedules to 8-4 instead of 9-5. That’s all that daylight savings is actually doing.
Yeah and they could pay us living wages too, or at least stop firing people then making everyone else take their workload with no extra pay. They wont do any of that though. And a congress that can barely pass a budget wont help us, they’ll axe DST and never do anything about it again. Plus if you have kids Im telling you right now the time they start school will not be changing either.
They say they want the sun up sooner in the morning, so they want normal time
They also say they want it to not set on their way home from work, so do they?
Read again
“home TO work”
They want the sun up in the morning before they go to work.
Read again “on your way home”
Its insanely unclear but this context should let you know what they meant
sounds like they want a lighter commute home still.
Sounds like they want the day to last longer all year, solution is to move south
