I'd prefer DST year round. I like to have a bit of light at the end of the work day and I cannot vary my work hours. I don't see a reason for the sun to be out at 5:30 am but set at 5pm. Who is up at 5:30?

Yup, now all those wanting DST gone but suffering TDS are going, "Noooo, this can't happen, what do I do?" :panic:

Needs to be DST all year. In summer it already starts getting light at 3am at the peak of DST. I don't want it to start getting light at 2am! And then lighter later on the evening in winter, way better.

Using either dark-out shades or dark-out curtains on your bedroom window, so bedroom is dark 24 hours a day.

If you work shift work add silicone earplugs, then sleeping shouldn’t be problem.

impo pick one and leave it year round, absolutely no need to change the clocks.

Nobody is saying that, but whatever helps you sleep with the TWS.

For myself it doesn’t matter which one is picked, just as long as time changing comes to an end.

DST or Standard seems like a battle between morning and night people!

Oh yes they are, but oh so silently. Listen closely enough and you'll hear the anguish in their voices.
