Just wow man, you are taking lazyness to a whole new level.
- minot 12y agoI'd go to bed at 7 AM and wake up at 1 PM. A regular nine to five job would be 3 PM to 11 PM. I, personally, have pretty much no social life so it wouldn't affect me that much if we had to work nine hundred hours to seventeen hundred hours UTC while living in central time zone (UTC - 6:00). I'd imagine we'd burn up a lot more fuel if everyone worked nights and slept days though. Also, I read somewhere that access to sunlight (or lack thereof) can alter people's emotional state.
- Arnavion 12y agoA single timezone for the whole world made much more sense in Asimov's Robot novels. But that was because everyone lived underground or in domed cities (I forget which), so they didn't care about the position of the sun and woke up / went to bed at the same time globally.
