I'm following my habit of fixing that issue by flying three time zones away the day after DST change. Just get all of the circadian rhythm issues taken care of in one, fell swoop.This is the weekend I hate.. the whole week afterwards I am screwed up in the morning.
The most, and only, practical solution: stop changing the clocks twice a year.Got it, not looking for a practical solution…
And all of societies institutions…Nothing but personal habits.
...all require change, due to the stupid practice of changing clocks twice a year.And all of societies institutions…
No one ever can “save” daylight. However the master schedule can be shifted to allow more daylight in the evening, a thing people love as much as they love complaining about changing clocks…The most, and only, practical solution: stop changing the clocks twice a year.
The advent of electric lights obviated any need to "save" daylight. All of the societal benefits come from... not changing clocks.
In society, do you suppose there are more institutions, or more people?And all of societies institutions…
What changes do societies institutions make due to changing clocks? Maybe increase staff at lowes because more gardeners start coming in?...all require change, due to the stupid practice of changing clocks twice a year.
...because that doesn't sound at all intrusive, either to institutions or to the members of society impacted by the change.No one ever can “save” daylight.

If you stay up late or get up early any other day or night of the year, are you screwed for the next week? Have you ever gone on a vacation to an area in another time zone?This is the weekend I hate.. the whole week afterwards I am screwed up in the morning.
My point may not be interpreted as intended. The simple changing of the clocks, no matter how much people bitch about it, changes everything in society relative to daylight with no further effort on the part of people or institutions.In society, do you suppose there are more institutions, or more people?
It doesn’t affect anyone that doesn’t participate in organized society, the ”intrusion” is completely voluntary…...because that doesn't sound at all intrusive, either to institutions or to the members of society impacted by the change.
Its just not me that gets screwed up the rest of the week..If you stay up late or get up early any other day or night of the year, are you screwed for the next week? Have you ever gone on a vacation to an area in another time zone?
The one thing certain in this DST debate is there is no shortage of links, studies, and articles that say whatever it is that the debaters want them to say for all positions.Its just not me that gets screwed up the rest of the week..
Daylight Saving Time and Your Health

I probably asked before but do not remember, how does DST affect your job?I hate it, and probably will as long as i have a job to be at.
I'm sure it varies from person to person, but for me, I've always been amazed at how firmly my regular sleep/wake up cycle is cemented. I can be up in the middle of the night, even for a few hours, and I still tend to wake up on my own not much later than I otherwise would. If I get up an hour early or go to bed an hour late on any random day, my body still wants to fall back into my normal sleeping/waking up times, even when I would expect my normal rhythm to be thrown off. When I travel to a different time zone for a week or so, my sleep schedule usually feels "off" the whole time I'm gone, and then when I come back it feels perfectly natural to go back to the original sleep/wake up schedule.If you stay up late or get up early any other day or night of the year, are you screwed for the next week?

It makes me burn an hour of PTO for Monday... that is usually enough to get me back in sync. Still annoying.I probably asked before but do not remember, how does DST affect your job?
i'll be getting up an hour earlier than i used to, and it will be light when i go to bed. I am guessing it takes some people longer to adjust than others, but it really is a thing.I probably asked before but do not remember, how does DST affect your job?
If people that are very sensitive to this change just adjusted to it incrementally over a week or two it shouldn’t be that bad?I'm sure it varies from person to person, but for me, I've always been amazed at how firmly my regular sleep/wake up cycle is cemented.

Whenever I change my normal sleeping times, it takes somewhere in the ballpark of a month before the new schedule feels natural.
