In reply to the discussion: Daylight Saving Time Is Terrible: Here's a Simple Plan to Fix It (DST ends Sun, Nov 3) [View all]Glassunion
(10,201 posts)Actually I have two plans...
1st plan... I call it the "Optimal Sun Time Plan"
Starting this Sunday we set our clocks back 1 hour making 2AM > 1AM, so we will end DST. However, on every Thursday (the day most businesses have extended hours during the week, especially small business) we set them forward 2 hours so we will have more daytime shopping after work. Now we ride that 2 hours forward until Saturday morning at 1AM, where we will set the clock back 2 hours so the bars can stay open longer (think of the money local pubs and taxi services will get?), then the following Sunday morning at 2AM we will set the clocks ahead those two hours, because who really wants to wake up early on a Sunday anyway? Then come Monday at 2AM we set them back an hour so we will all get an extra hour of sleep before heading into work. Then on Tuesday we set them back another hour at 1AM so we get another extra hour of sleep because Tuesday suck sometimes too. Then come Thursday we simply repeat the process.
2nd plan... I call it the "Who Gives a Sh*t Anymore Plan"
Set our clocks back a 1/2 hour this Sunday and never change them again.
