We can't change the sun, but we have 100% control over when we decide that school is going to start or work is going to start or whatever. voice-verified

It's so embedded in the culture. voice-verified

I disagree with that. voice-verified

First of all, a lot of companies have already moved to flex time where people can go in – they can decide what eight-hour period they want to work during the day. voice-verified

They can come an hour early. voice-verified

They can come an hour late. voice-verified

And that helps too because then that spreads out rush hours so we're not all trying to get to work at the same exact time. voice-verified

Yeah, but can't the market just decide, we're going to open at 8 instead of 7? voice-verified

But if we're changing the time, right? voice-verified

We're changing the clocks. voice-verified

That's a bigger change, you know? voice-verified

I have a solution. voice-verified

Oh, that's stupid. voice-verified

Well, that's the other thing to think about this, though, is that we have one hour time zones. voice-verified

So that means that there are people who are already an hour shifted compared to other people in the same time zone. voice-verified

Absolutely. voice-verified

Again, that's my point. voice-verified

It doesn't really matter. voice-verified

You've got to individualize anyway. voice-verified

If you're on the western edge of a time zone, you may decide that you're going to do things an hour early on the clock or whatever. voice-verified
