we're on a three month rotation. so april-june = days, july-sep = swings, and oct-dec = nights.
6 months of nights in a year. sucks. |

| Is it just me or did NO ONE SAY A ING THING about daylight savings time until 3 minutes before it was going to happen? All I heard was "oh by the way in 3 minutes you're going to lose an hour." WHY? So farmers can get up early and grow crops or something? This wasn't supposed to happen until April right? I hate the sun so much I don't want another hour of sunshine. I hate LA. I am so hungover right now. =( |

actually, pushing the time an hour later means that farmers can work later than normal, instead of getting up an hour earlier.

Ug. Changing the time for farmers is like changing the time for herders. Who does this anymore and why on my time? Why don't the farmers just wake up an hour later? Why aren't monkeys farmers? I'm sure they don't care what time it is. Why do I have to wake up an hour later? I need shower I smell soooooo bad. |

| I actually like the sun being out more. It wakes me up for school, and I don't have to worry about as many gun-toting peoples outside my apartment for another hour. |

nonono, like, if we were on normal time, the sun would rise right now at say, 0600...but during peak summer it would rise at around 0330 :wtf: .... so by pushing the sun an hour later, the ing farmers don't have to get up until 430 instead of 330.
or something around that notion. either way, i still agree with the last two statements you said. |
