Clock change

[Dockem]

Why does losing an hour of sleep always feel like you lost two???

I heard in November it's over. To compromise all, they will move back only 1/2 hr :Shrug:

Clock Change

I'm retired and operating on something called my personal time. Unfortunately it does not work for anyone still working.

 

[Sully]

I don't mind changing my one wall clock, but changing all 16 wall timers is a pain.

:gah:

I for one truly wish the gov would quit messing with it. Leave it one way or the other. I am sadly amongst the 6 to 8% of the population affected by what is known as SAD. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/seasonal-affective-disorder/basics/causes/con-20021047 Living with it really sucks.

[FONT=tahoma, arial, sans-serif]Supposedly an Indigenous American elder, when told about Daylight Saving Time said," Only the government would believe that you can cut a foot off the bottom of a blanket, sew it to the top, and have a longer blanket."

An irony about that statement is that the Navajo Nation, in Arizona, observes Daylight Saving time, but the state of Arizona itself does not. [/FONT]:Shrug:[FONT=tahoma, arial, sans-serif]

I cheated and left EST behind and headed out to Kansas on business. With jumping back to Central time, I avoid the time change for another week.

I also avoid the monster snowstorm heading for LI. Just a happy coincidence.

[Jack Klarich]

[Beauregard]

I never changed the clock in my pickup last fall. I am now current!

Left the wife and cat in a heartbeat. Turns out only a couple of inches of snow fell between rain. Neighbor cut out an escape path for her.

If you leave torx timers alone, will they still work on schedule? :Shrug:

Are you sure it isn't ....Spring back, Fall forward......

 

[paws]

Well, I for one, would like for the clock to just sit still - either on one time or the other permanently - just make a d**m decision - tired of popping back and forth.

Of course I prefer the original time - I could always tell pretty close what time it was by the position of the sun if I didn’t have a watch on.

:gah:

Maybe it's ...Put your right foot in , And your left foot out.....:Shrug:

I love DST. Who wants to do anything in the daily light at 4:45 AM in late June when the sun comes up. I wish we would stay on DST all year like we did during the 73-74 Winter months during the first oil crisis.

If i was the Benevolent King of America, I would push the clock two hours ahead and leave it there all year...That would be the right thing to do, And then no one would/could argue with that , Cause i am the King....:laugh:

Yesterday the HR clowns at work broadcast an email to everyone to remind us to set our clocks back an hour.

It will be interesting to see who traipses in late on Monday.
