Plot twist: He lives in Arizona where the whole state does that

The amount of times I've heard someone say 'its for the farmers' as if farmers have ever given a fuck what the clock says.

“Excuse me sir on the tractor, what time is it?”

“It’s who gives a fuck o’clock, city boy.”

Props to this man. Animals don’t follow daylight savings and it’s easier to keep a farm on standard time.

No, daylight savings was not invented for farmers

My dad did that one year lol. Refused to change his clocks or personal routine. Dunno if he was able to stick with it or not — but it was funny to hear him talk so seriously about why he "refuses to abide by such an arbitrary concept that makes his life harder, by having to adjust his body's schedule"

His face had such a straight up "nope, fuck all that" look about it, it cracked me up lmao

They always used to claim daylight savings was for farmers, even though farmers are probably the people in society who least have to follow the same daily schedule as anyone else.

I’ve never heard anyone who likes DST… this thread confirms my bias. Arizona has it right. We have internet now, no need to change clocks, just update your schedules for the season.

Wasn't there a bill recently to get rid of DST, and it got stalled in Congress or something?

Ok but hes actually got it backwards. Standard time is those four months in winter, and we use daylight savings time during the summer.

I work for a Chinese company and my colleagues treat daylight savings time as an inexplicable religious ritual that they indulgently accommodate us ptimitives iin.

Sure he does, becsuse all time-measuring devices of any sort in his house are analogue and have to be changed manually, and none them have phones which automatically corrects the time.

So in essences they have some clocks in theirs houses which are off by an hour for four months a year. They still use the time everyone else uses, because that's how time works.

He’s not a slave to big chronometer.

Seems like a pretty reasonable course for a farmer to take. Livestock don't have clocks, after all.

If it's only four months then he doesn't care about standard time, we are actually on daylight savings time for the majority of the year.

Which is pretty wild when you think about it. The darkest, coldest, most depressing time if the year we let the sun set super early.

I did this one year. It was better. It just feels like normal time. I don't actually remember it being a problem at all and my morning/evening was better.

That's what I do with the automated cat feeders. Cats do not observe daylight savings time.

Wasn't daylight savings time designed specifically for this man?
