What I don’t understand, is why change time, just change working hours. I’m all for giving up the time change, but the standard should probably still be UTC offset. If you work 9-5, change it to 10-6. Every company can post working hours on their website. Obviously for most of us, it’s a moot point.
P.S. Anyone working at NIST or a similar org probably needs a raise for dealing with all the exceptions. > On Mar 15, 2022, at 4:16 PM, Joly MacFie <[email protected]> wrote: > > WaPo has a been there done that item today. > > https://www.washingtonian.com/2022/03/15/the-us-tried-permanent-daylight-saving-time-in-the-70s-people-hated-it/ > > <https://www.washingtonian.com/2022/03/15/the-us-tried-permanent-daylight-saving-time-in-the-70s-people-hated-it/> > > On Tue, Mar 15, 2022 at 3:11 PM Jay R.
