Daylight saving?

Question

I have some interstate work colleagues who switched to daylight saving for the first time, with mixed feelings about the change. Where I am, we have had daylight savings for as long as I can remember, and I think its great. I know the farmers dislike it, because it disrupts their schedule. Any other reasons why its disliked/liked?

Answer 1

People love getting the extra hour when daylight saving ends, as they can sleep-in an extra hour or use it how they like. Of course, comes the daylight saving starts, you'd lose an hour, so people generally dislike it at this time.

The animals and plants do not observe our clock, so daylight saving is a hassle for farmers and others who work with animals.

Not only does daylight saving disrupts one's schedule, it disrupts one's bio-rhythm. Also, some people don't like waking up in the dark (changing time could mean they go from waking up in the light to waking up in the dark).

On the other hand, you have people like, golfers and convenience store owners, who may like the extra daylight in the late afternoon or early evening.

And then into the evening, you have people who have to walk in the dark to return home (if not for daylight saving), so by having daylight saving, they feel safer.

Answer 2

I hate the hassle of changing the clocks. I drive east in the morning and west at night and I hate having to go through the sun in the eyes thing twice.

Answer 3

its just stupid to change your clocks twice a year
