Daylight saving BS?

[hank4elk]

Always been an up before sunrise guy. Always hated this game of time wasting changes.
I live a standard time life year round.

When it gets dark at 5 I’m yawning and ready for bed at 7, then I’m up wandering around at 2am. It’s a good time to go out and kill coyotes though.

It's ridiculous and outdated, needs to go away.

Why TF are we still doing this?

There was legislation introduced in the Senate earlier this year to do away with this nonsense. Support for it was absolute and bipartisan yet it still stalled in the house and went no where.
Literally nothing gets full bipartisan support ever and even with that the gov can’t get things done…

If the house DOES NOT move it forward than SOMEONE IN THE HOUSE MUST BE MAKING MONEY from it !!!

It has been several years since Indiana switched to the daylight savings time BS. It makes 0 sense and some of our state is in a different time zone which complicates things anyway. They should have never messed with it.

I believe it was for year round DST...not the original mean average daylight ,standard time.

I worked 10 hr days most of my life in construction and 4/10's for the last 15 years of a full time job as a Park Ranger.
I have these things called lights that were invented 100 years ago and have been improved on to tiny blue blinding headlamps on EV's, I hate.

Side rant... getting brighter bulbs or headlights after the new tires................LOL

I agree-put it one way or the other and leave it that way.

Just move it a half-hour permanently and call it good forever…

This just means I‘m up at 3:30 instead of 4:30 and I go to bed at 8 instead of 9. Doesn't make much difference to me but I still think its stupid. Seems to cause more headaches for people than it helps.

Seems like that would work…

That or just get both sides pissed…permanently

Typical government, everyone agrees on something so they throw it to the side and look for something stupid to chase instead. It's irritating to say the least. Now instead of getting out hunting after work, I have to go before work if I want to hunt. I love waking up at 4am and being ready for bed at 8pm.

 

[Tradewind]

On the bright side, I got out hunting earlier than usual

This is what I love about you, always looking on the bright side of life.

I love the change. It can get dark earlier in the evening. The light in the morning is wonderful.

Like it or not, the concept was for an extra hour of daylight that you could enjoy after work in the summer when you would want to be outside. I don’t work anymore, so it doesn’t matter to me, but when I was working, I found it to be advantageous to more outdoor activities.

Go back 150 years when there were no time zones and everyone set their watches to 12:00 when the sun was it’s highest. Can you imagine a town 30 or more miles away and noon was actually 12:15 or some other time increment.

No matter what you do, someone won’t like it. I just change the clock and eat an hour later in the winter..

I like daylight savings time and hope they keep it the same. It doesn't change one single aspect of my life. But then wouldn't really either way.
