OT: Let's kill the clock moving already...

Don't like or care for daylight savings, but whatever can be done so that I can golf as late as possible in the summer will make me happy

While we’re talking about it.  What are people’s thoughts on loosening the
convention that everyone works the same hours. 
A lot of the complaints people have are because their work expects them
to come in at a specific time.  The time
on the clock is just the time on the clock. 
It’s our customs and peer pressure that force people onto different
schedules than the ones they prefer.

I think it all depends on the industry you work in and when your third party vendors work. I work for a construction company, running their real estate development department, so I base my hours on when contractors work as well as lenders and investors. I'm salaried so it really doesn't matter when my "hours are", but some industries are different and folks should be able to work whenever so long as it doesn't have a negative impact on the business or individual.

I think most peoples schedules are set based on conventional working hours,  and honestly the US would become so unproductive if people worked when they want to.  Imagine you need an answer, that only 1 person from another company can provide,  and you have to wait 2 days for her to get back to work since their work week is thursday-monday,  or even just wait until tomorrow because they want their hours to be midnight to 9 am,  I am already convinced that what we have now with so many new people working from home since covid is killing productivity.  answers that used to take minutes to get are now taking hours/days.
