  I'm a youngish carefree man and I fucking hate DST. In the summer everybody switches to going to work one hour earlier and, unfortunately, that perfectly screws with my sleeping habits. In the winter, I naturally get up on time to arrive between 10 and 11, but in the summer, if I'm to get enough sleep, I'd have to be at work after 11! And since nobody else has trouble with it, I basically spend 6 months out of every year struggling to get enough sleep.

  Was looking for the person who mentions kids. Thank you. The misery of putting a kid to bed an hour early (WHY DAD WHY?) then listening to them rage for about 2 hours due to getting overwrought, just to have to wake them up in the AM rather than wake up naturally. Its miserable and having braved 4 time changes since she became sentient, it gets worse every time.

I have the total opposite issue: my kids love going to bed and would happily go at 4pm if we let them, the problem is they want to be up at 5:30am every day.. :-) I can't even think of a single morning in 4 years where I've had to get my eldest up..
