    Its that time of the year again, daylight saving is set to end on Nov. 7 at 2 a.m. ET. The clock will fall back by one hour, giving people an extra hour of sleep.

    Don't forget to set all of your clocks, watches and ect.

    THE WORST DAY OF THE YEAR! Depresses me to lose an hour of daylight in the afternoon. To add insult to injury I have to wake up an extra hour early to get in the stand by first light.

    I like having more time in the evenings when I get out of the stand.

    I don't always reset all the clocks. There is still 24 hours in a day.

    I used to have a hard time with it when they changed the date and my sleep schedule would get all wonky. Now, sleeping gets all wonky all by itself :whistle:

    This is great. You get an extra hour to drink before last call at 2 am.
    It's a PA thing.:thumbs:

    I despise the time change. Just another government intervention to convince us they are doing something to help us.

    Kinda like raising taxes to prevent the earth's cycles. :picard: Hows that working out for ya?

    Any hoo.........I've got to figure out haw to adjust my sundial now! :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    That happens here in Wisconsin as well.

    :whistle::handshake:

    Some of the clocks here automatically change time with the atomic clock dealies ,cell phones, etc that auto changes.

    The daylight savings time messes with me though. Not so bad in Fall, but spring daylight savings time change messes me up for a week or so.

    That is just great. I wake up between 2 and 3 am naturally (last couple of weeks its been 2-2:30). So now I will be waking up at 1-2 am. I start work shortly before 6 and usually don't get out until 4-4:30. Monday's sunset will be at 4:30, so that means no sun for me except weekends. :(

    Great! I can’t stand it being dark at 7:15 in the morning. Once colder weather hits, I’m totally fine with it being dark by dinner time because I rarely have plans to go back outside after

    Soon as I saw this thread, I thought of posting that statement/pic. Couldn’t agree more.

    Instead of trying to change time and control daylight, man should change the schedule that the standardized work hours (9-5).

    The work day could begin at 7 or even 6. :whistle:
