I am from Arizona; you are correct.
No DST is awesome, but causes no end of coordination problems with people outside of AZ... for important meetings like job interviews basically the only option is to be prepped on both hours.
The reservation thing is fun with cell phones - in northern parts of the state, there are places where your cell phone will adjust time by an hour depending on which cell tower you manage to connect to. So one moment your screen will display 2:30, the next 3:30, and a few minutes later it's back to 2:30 again. You fall back to using relative times; "we'll meet in an hour, etc."
- Declanomous 10y agoI still wear a watch because of reasons like that. (I look at my watch, I have 2:30) "What time do you have?" "3:30" "Ok. Let's meet in an hour. That's 4:30 for you." (Which I know will be 3:30 for me) My watch also runs for years on a single battery. I probably get asked for time once a week by somebody whose phone has died. (Wearing a watch is the universal symbol for "I have the time")
