I rely on smart devices to tell the time, but it’s easy to notice DST when the few dumb devices I have are out of sync. If I didn’t have any of those, I would have missed the switch entirely.

I work night shift. I got to watch the time on my phone reset and then relive the hour again while stuck on shift.

You notice when you wake up and the sun either is brighter or it is dark outside.

People who rely on their phones/computers to tell time

Okay, but we're not cave people, ffs. I couldn't help notice the sun was up a lot sooner than normal.

It would be nice if there was a little notification. Can't believe there isn't.

I got a late appointment for my dog at the vet’s office. A tech walked out and was kind of freaking out that it was already dark at 5:30. She said she’d never experienced DST before. Turns out she’d moved here fairly recently from Puerto Rico and they don’t change time there.

I only noticed dst change when I saw that my analog desk clock was off by an hour one day compared to my phones. Why do we even do this shit, I dont think anything changes for my routine from it

I knew someone who came to the UK as a student from Nigeria, which used the same timezone as British Summertime. His phone was still on Nigerian time and it took until monday when he realised that people weren't at the bus stop and the bus was an hour late that he was living his life in a different timezone

All the more reason to fall back and never spring forward again.

I had to stay up to push my sleep schedule back to catch an early flight. I didn't know we were going back until it was about to be 2am (when I planned to go to sleep) and it was suddenly 1am. Normally I'm happy to get an extra hour of sleep but this time it meant having to wait an extra hour to sleep.

I noticed because my oven suddenly had the right time

Don't worry, the stove will remind you!

Me sitting here in Arizona not knowing what you're all talking about then remembering I'm in Arizona.

We stopped doing that in my country. I don't remember why though?

I was driving to the store on Sunday around 5:30ish and I wondered why it was so dark. That’s when it hit me. The only clock I have in the house that doesn’t set itself is the coffee pot and I rarely drink coffee.

I was genuinely wondering why I woke up at 430 am. Like 530 is uncommon but 430?! The fuck?

Went back to bed, woke up before 8?? Like all week it was hard to get my laptop open for 8am but suddenly... what?

My girlfriend reminded me.

Was that today?

This is how it’s been for me for almost 25 years…

First time in my life it was good thing. Friend and I were sleeping off hangovers, thought we wasted the day away and got back an hour.

Every other years it's meant me staying later for or going in early for work lol

The perfect moment to say thank you to Paul Eggert

Nah, the time change just resets when the sun is in my eyes in the morning on the way to work. Very noticeable.

My mom usually reminds me about daylight saving time, even though it's unnecessary because I have no clocks to reset. I was surprised she didn't bring it up to me this time

A number of years ago my wife and I visited Lubec, Maine, which is about the northeastern point of the state. Lubec has a bridge that connects to Campobello Island, which is Canadian. For whatever reason, Campobello is in a different time zone despite being physically only one or two hundred yards from the mainland.

I learned the hard way that the closest cell tower in the area was on Campobello, and since it’s in a different time zone it caused my phone to change time to an hour earlier. Luckily it resulted in us being an hour early for a harbor tour instead of an hour late.

Some people have a mixture of both and don't know which clock is right or not

...okay yeah.

I wear an automatic wristwatch pretty much all the time

clocking effen out

My phone automatically adjusts.
