    I don’t understand why it never occurred to anyone that they could just change the times they do things instead of changing the clock

      It would cause disruptions because of business hours inconsistently changing.

      You know your suppliers business hours, they don’t change. The clock changes, but your supplier still opens at 9am, you know when you’re working they’re open.

      If it were trivial to accomplish individually, then you could tell your boss that after the time change you’ll be coming into the office at 10am instead of 9am and negate any ill effects from the time change. If place of employment is cool with this, then you make this change right now. But most people have to conform to what the rest of their industry is doing.

      Pretty sure it did, and would lead to conversations like “Oh by the way boss, for the next 6 months I’ll be coming in an hour late. You guys are cool with flex time, right?”

        Me: As long as you leave an hour later why do I give a shit.

        Probably why I’m not the boss of anything.
