Not quite an equal comparison. I work for myself, and outside, so that's exactly what I do. I change my start/finish time by two hours. In summer start earlier because the daylight is there and to beat the heat. I eat lunch earlier and just long enough to eat my sandwich and done by 2pm. 3pm-on is the hottest part of the day. In winter, by 8-9am the sun is above the trees, frost is melting off, and I'm still working at the warmest part of the day. Working 7-3:30 is foolish to me. Start work in the dim light and freezing cold, then pack up at the warmest part of the day. But most of the world works on a set clock. It's far more complicated for businesses to shift their schedule twice a year than everybody simply resetting the clocks. It's really not worth the time spent talking about it, if you ask me.
