    Before the introduction of daylight savings, people and companies were perfectly capable of adjusting the productive hours according to the sun - if they needed to.

    Farmers who are usually (wrongly) used as an example were against the clock changes, because it really isn’t relevant to them and only creates problems for their schedules with live stock.

    The actual reason for the daylight saving was saving energy and coal. This is not an issue anymore, because the energy used for lighting is negligible today.

    The only sane thing to do is to stop changing the clocks and then focus on making working schedules more flexible.
