(colorful, unedited expletives here)....we got an hour scooped out of our life.
I hate daylight saving time and prefer we'd remain on railroad time.
Wonder if I'm in the minority.
Buuut.....that's just me....have a great day.

I'm actually surprised with how well I adjusted with the time shift. I was expecting it to be harder than it was. Small blessings!
Cheers,
Ember

W, same as you! Completely caught me by surprise. I do not believe anything good happens when you fool around with biological clock. Many health issues too, are directly related to sleep deprivation. I think it was Australian doc that suggested that humans would be much more productive if average workdays are 4 hours long. I think, I can support that idea together with elimination of "daylight" thing in LED world

I don't care if it's daylight savings or regular I wish we could just stay with one. I hate switching twice a year. There are several states that opt out now hopefully someday soon all will.

If an hour makes a difference.... don't worry, they give it back to you without interest in 6 months.

I adjust to the time shift immediately. However, I wish they would stay on standard time all year. It's so hard to reset the sundial  We have two brain-dead senators that want to ignore real problems and put Florida on Daylight Savings Time all year. Of course that means they have an extra hour of golf, at the expense of small children waiting at the school bus stop in total darkness during the winter months. It's been proven that daylight savings time does not save any energy, it just shifts the demand to the morning. Noon (midday) is supposed to be when the sun is directly overhead, it's time to end the insanity and just leave it on standard time all year. Insights, incites and a minor rant by Notes

Only in America would people cut off a foot from the top of a blanket, sew it to the bottom, and think they have a longer blanket. At my age and health, I am just glad to SEE the sun come up. It doesn't matter WHEN it comes up.

Of course that means they have an extra hour of golf No they won't. The sun will be in the sky for the same number of minutes. I wish we had NO hours on the clock. You'd have sunrise, and sunset. Everything in between is just "day". When it gets dark outside, you turn on the lights to see. Does it matter what time a clock says it is when you do that? And to think this all stared because Benjamin Franklin proposed it as a joke, knowing full well that you have the same number of hours of sunlight every day no matter what a clock says. Of course this is the perspective of someone who never has to be anywhere. I wake up when I am no longer sleepy. I go to bed when I am tired. I eat when I am hungry. I don't go to places with start and stop times more than 4-5 times per year.

Two days later, and I've still not adjusted to the new time schedule.
Hopefully it'll be different next year, as I'm in one of the states that opted out.
