Gotta give back that hour you took without too much bitching last October. It’s simple quantum principle, conservation of time and energy; think of it as a loan of 60 minutes and the note is due.

Those of us who have been stupid enough to use Microsoft software can vouch for that.

So, the employee clocked in at time x and out at time y. Hours worked should be y-x, right? Wrong! If x and y straddle a time change, the employee either gains or loses an hour! Why should the employee complain? Spring balances fall, right? LOL!

Intelligent folks, and those who have learned through experience, use the likes of Postgresql, which stores timestamps properly and can subtract them properly, DST notwithstanding!

I didn't take an hour last October. I reclaimed the hour that was stolen from me the previous March. Now they've stolen it from me again. I want it back.
