    Mornings are miserable regardless. Let the boss man have us at the lowest and worst part of the day.

    When the work day is over, we should have some daylight left for our own use. That means DST.

      If you want to shift your schedule talk to your boss or change jobs.

      We still need morning light, especially for kids.

        Kids don’t get daylight in the winter under standard time.

        We send them to school before dawn. They are locked indoors until a brief recess at lunch time, then locked back indoors until 3pm. In winter, that gives them just enough time for sunset shortly after they get home.

        In December and January, the only school-day hours of daylight they get to enjoy are the ones given to them by Daylight Savings Time.

        Morning daylight is more than adequately replaced with a smart lamp next to your bedroom window. There is no replacement for evening daylight.
