The best thing about DST is the extra hour of sunlight makes the outside temp warm up.

In Ct June 21 sunrise 4:16am est 5:16am dst.. Who wants the sun to come up at 4:16am?
In Tx sunrise June 21 is 6:19am dst.
I did the go to work in the dark and come home in the dark routine, yes it sucks. We worked a 4 days 12 hours on, 4 days off . Worked 162 days if you had 2 week vacation 158 days with 3weeks vak 154 days with 4 weeks vak. Working 3 Sat/Sundays in a row then a Sunday the following week then 3 Sat/Sundays off. They wanted to keep the machines running 24 hrs 7 days a week. One year I work 9 out of 10 holidays and made $5,000 extra. Thank God I made it to retirement!!!

In Indiana we didn't have DST until about 11 years ago. When we adopted it the feds predictably put us in the Eastern time zone so in the summer the sun is out until well after 9 pm. Then about 4 years later most schools in the state went to a "balanced" schedule school year, so the kids go back August 1st, so we get to put our kids to bed when the sun is still very much still out.

I spent the whole day thinking "Jeez the day's going by fast". It's disorienting, kinda like jet lag.

Yes it is tough, kids must be fussy . School starts Aug 1st that really sucks. Eastern time zone egad.

Well, I live on the Florida coast, and my commute to work is driving due East most of the time, so it SUCKS driving in when the sun is just coming up. I like coming in before it rises.

This time of year sucks *** from the middle of my sack to the top of my crack.
I hate it with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns.
It is like a bill that comes that I am not ready to pay. I work outside and when the sun goes down, it feels like it is time to go to sleep.
