Agreed, but you walked into it.
All my life, I have looked forward to having that extra hour of daylight during the warm months so that I could get home from work, slap a steak on the grill, crack a beer and sit on my back deck with plenty of daylight left to go before darkness and mosquitoes set in.
Doing away with that extra hour of daylight because it is inconvenient for a few old cranks to move a few clocks back and forth twice a year will be a kick in the stomach to all the working people who keep this world running for everybody else.
Now it is time to give that extra hour of daylight back as we move into the darker, colder winter months because the OTHER side of the day is now plunged in darkness and those same working people have to get up in the morning for work and fumble for light switches and stumble out to their cars in the icy, cold darkness to defrost their windshields. So having that daylight moved back to morning in winter helps the working people as well as the dim, low sun at least has a fighting chance to attack those windshields as we are frying our eggs and drinking our black coffee indoors.
It's dark when we get home but it's too cold to do anything outdoors anyway this time of year.
So let's keep that Daylight Savings time going for all the working people out there who work hard to keep the lights on for all the rest of us. Surely the moving around of a few clocks twice a year cannot be that bad of an inconvenience.
Agreed, but you walked into it.
Most states against changing time want DST to be permanent,
I feel the same way.
For decades, I have left my house before six AM and get home after six PM, and in the winter it is dark all the time anyway.
