No the longer evenings are achieved by work starting and ending an hour earlier. And it's literally easier to change the time zone than to change corporate culture.

So would you be team BST if we had to pick one? I'm just personally not sure it's such a loss when the sun is out until 10pm at the height of summer.

Edit: to be honest that would probably be my 2nd preference. Anything except the system we have now where the clocks change!

I think I want work to end an hour earlier in the winter because of how early the sun sets, and care much less about the summer. So however it's done, it would be great if office jobs could happen when it's dark outside and we could live our lives during daylight.

Mmm yeah I've noticed that my retired parents keep telling me what a great summer we're having every year and I'm completely unaware of it due to being cooped up inside.
