Changing our clocks is a tradie thing

And I hate it. The only reason to "save" daylight and to get up when the sun rises, is so that tradies don't have to work late.


Fcuking tradies!!

there was a consensus in the EU to abolish this **** next year but since they cannot agree on whether it should stay winter or summer time this seems to go nowhere smh

It's not. It's simply a way to "make the most of daylight". Which means to have more in the morning than in the evening. This is why AZ doesn't do DST, because the last thing they want is more daylight.

Farming is a trade. Those who work it are farming tradies.

Plenty of math in accounting, unlike various trades such as farming, welding, delivering mail, or driving Lyft.

In the fall, we "fall back" to Standard Time. In the Spring, we "spring forward" to DST so we have more daylight hours after work.

So, we are actually on Standard Time currently.
You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.
