    I dont understand why people want the sun to come up later so they can “save daylight”. Bro i hate getting up in the dark, i think your timezone should also consider when you wake up you want sunshine. This of course also depends on when the average person starts working and goes to school.

      I’ll just fucking adjust my schedule. This time of year, it’s dark when I get up around 8am and dark well before 5pm. It really makes no difference if us central is utc - 5 or 6.

      Doesn’t matter what time the sun rises for me, I’m going to have to wake up much earlier than the sunrise so that I can work productively outside for a few hours before it becomes unbearably hot. I’d rather not have to wake up at 4am because some wanker working in an office wants breakfast at sunrise. Waking up along with or after the sun rises is simply not an option for many people. That’s the daylight they are saving, productive and less dangerous working conditions for people working outside in the south and southwest. Work culture can be adapted to when you want to work, I can’t change when the sun starts beating down and makes it dangerous to work.

        Interesting to hear the opinion of someone who lives in a very hot place. As someone who lives in sweden the only thing that matters is how much sunlight you have because its depressing as hell. But in some places you want to avoid too much sunlight because its dangerous. Why dont you just do what they do in spain, that is work 4 hours in the morning and 4 at night for example?
