Don't know about the rest of you, but it's this time of year I hate the most. I wish they'd just leave the clocks alone.
 
Thanks for the reminder....we had temporarily forgotten.

Yeah, getting dark at 6:00 isn't nice. We do like having the extra hour though.

I grew up in northern Indiana where it was on central time. That's my favorite time. I do agree....we should set the time and keep it set...and leave it alone.

Except for one thing, I don't sleep but maybe 2 hours a night. Sometimes while I'm standing I can catch a couple seconds, at least before I smack the floor.
 
Come live in AZ Ross. We don't mess with the clocks and like you, I like it that way.
 
If my body clock would adjust..quickly..but I will be ready for bed at 8 P.M. (normally 9 P.m.)..and up at 5 a.m. ..instead at 6 a.m.:eek: .takes a few weeks to adjust....If I remember..when it gets later into this winter..it is dark early?...I remember a friend saying years ago. he never saw his outside yard in the daylight?..Went to work in dark..came home in dark?..:( So, this extra hour of daylight ..will not last long?:confused: Bonnie
 
I am ready for an extra hour of sleep but the time change sucks as far as businees goes. Most Infiniti buyers don't come out after dark except to play.......

As far as buying goes yeah it would suck, but your body shop should be busier and take up somne of the slack.
 
Our clocks went back an hour LAST weekend. Its already DARK at 5pm and DARK at 7AM....I hate it. Im with leaving the clocks alone too !!!!
 
growing up in Miami, we never changed the clocks. Then we moved to Baltimore for 5 yrs and neighbors reminded us to 'change our clocks' and we said "WHY?". When we got back to Florida they were changing them here, too. Then I moved to Fl panhandle in the CST time zone and we are different from the rest of Florida, which is in EST zone! Working here, I used to come home in the dark at 4:00 p.m. On Dec 21st, we can look forward to the next day increasing light by a few minutes.
 
The only good thing about the change is it is lighter in the morning which means getting going for work is a bit easier. Hard to get going when it's still dark. The bad part is darkness during evening rush hours.
 
I like the extra hour of sleep, but that doesn't make up for coming home in the dark. I'm thinking that we're moving toward keeping DST all year because they moved the spring change up and the fall change back this year.
