Oh happy day. It is DST again. So on Monday morning [View all]

everyone due to be at work at 7:30 am will be just fine. Please just try to work through that just Friday, just a couple of days ago it was 6:30 am.

Honestly when are we going to get sick enough of this stupid manipulation for no good damned reason that we call a halt to "springing" forward an hour every March and then "falling" back an hour in October? F this!!

Apologize for lack of coherent msg. DST, F it.
