I think this is a non issue. I’m just happy that I will be able enjoy more time after work while it’s not dark yet.

  I wonder why people couldn’t just start work earlier. The day is the same length.

    Yes, exactly! If you want more daylight time after work, just start work earlier! I know not everyone has that luxury. But permanent Daylight Saving Time also makes it darker in the mornings, when kids are going off to school and that isn't necessarily desirable. I think it makes sense to be more flexible about when we schedule things and not further distort the historic understanding of the relationship of the clock to the sky. And yes, I understand that there are many places where this relationship is tenuous, at best.

      I would prefer dark while kids go to school in exchange for light after school so they are actually out side playing while there is sun.

        Not an unreasonable attitude, I'll grant.

    It's not only work. It's schools, theaters, sport events, tv, dinner time. We must move everything and all the ingrained habits. It's not logic but moving the clock is easier.

    I already am starting work pretty early. I’m usually earlier in the office than most my colleagues. Starting work even earlier ist not really practical for me.
