An email I got from a colleague today:

Good Morning All,

According to some website thing that pops up on my computer every morning and won’t stop we have a new safety topic for today, specific.

Effects of Daylight Savings Time:

  1. Heart attack, so let’s take the elevator today.

  2. Increased Miscarriages

  3. Higher Workplace Injuries: The rate of workplace injuries the Monday after DST Increases by 5.7%. So, Let’s be real careful folks.

  4. Depression: Probably from being at work . . .

  5. More Car Accidents: Site peeps sleepy, depressed, etc. cuz had to go to work . . .

Moral of the story, we are not safety conscious because we came to work!

All of which can be mitigated by a sign on the front door advertising your workplace's "New Summer Hours", provided those are a 1 hour shift of your winter hours.

Yet somehow Alaska manages to do shit with the sun going nuts year around. I don't buy it. Dark days in the winter and Sunny nights in the summer.

I think he is trying to say he would do away with DST. Then it would be, for example EST ( on the east coast) all year round. This headline would mean DST would still be in effect.

He also wants to make leap day June 31st, instead of February 29th. He wants an extra day of summer.

As a parent of two toddlers I just want to shit on whoever voted this assholery into law. I spent 30 minutes fighting my two year old from digging into the trash can after I threw away part of his dinner that fell on the floor. Why? Because his entire schedule was jammed forward by an hour and he doesn't know why. He is just tired and confused as hell and is throwing temper tantrums at everything.

Lock the trash behind the basement door. That's what I do to keep my dog out of it. Might work on your dog, too.

2019-03-11 | Trump endorses permanent daylight saving time | TheHill

'“Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me!” Trump tweeted. '

'California and several other states are considering measures that would end the biannual clock changes between standard and daylight saving time. '

'Rubio introduced a similar measure in 2018. '

' That bill did not advance in the Senate. '

Can't wait to see how they spin this as awful and racist.

Dst is for the farmers. The farmers are all illegals. Elimimating dst is thus persecuting immigrants and therefore racist.

Why would a farmer give a shit about DST? A owner/farmer doesn't punch a time clock.

DST is for factories.

This. "That's cool that you fixed the stupid clock-changing thing, Mr. President... but what are we going to do about the thousands of foreigners who are replacing the people who elected you? ....Bring in more, you say? Donald, I'm starting to question whether you are truly our guy or not..."
