How does it work if you are a nurse working the night shift, and suddenly the clock jumps up an hour. Do you work 11 hours and get paid for 12 but automatically get conscripted for Fall back. Or do you just have 1 outlier shift that's 11 hours. It is accounted for in the AHS CBA.
I woke up at 1 because something from work was disturbing my sleep at 1:30AM...by the time I sorted it out and put my mind at ease is was 3:30. I guess I put in for 2 hours...kidding of course but I don't think my employment agreement covers this.
Not sure about Nurses, but the wife and I both work overnight often. For me my shifts are 24 hours long so when we end up working the extra hour we get some paid overtime, and when we work an hour less we just smile and take the freebie.
My wife and my old job did it even easier, you just work the length of your shift regardless of the what the clock says. So show up at the normal time, go home 10 hours later even if the clock says it's only been 9
Yeah, you wanna complain? I’m in Europe in 2 weeks and get to experience our time change, then have 7 hours of jet lag, then the day after I arrive DST in Europe kicks in and I get to experience theirs too! And then to make it WORSE we go to Portugal and lose an hour and then in 3 weeks back to ‘regular’ Europe and gain an hour…and then the icing on the cake is coming home and having 8 hours difference again! It’s ridiculous!!11!!1

I had to catch a flight at 8, set my alarm and was really having to trust no glitches in my phone changing properly during the night. Having stayed up late with relatives but not late enough to see the change I was a bit nervous.

That's when you do some basic math and also set a timer for however long you're going to sleep for.

On behalf of the 84% Canadians who disagree with falling back, Shut Up!
"The American Academy of Sleep Medicine is a medical association whose professionals advocate for policies that improve sleep health. On Tuesday, the academy released a statement calling on the U.S. to eliminate daylight saving time completely, stating that standard time best supports health and safety, as it aligns with people's natural circadian rhythm."

Was just a CTV poll the other day. I think it was Canadians that want to stop the time change, but not sure if it was specific to sticking with Daylight Savings or Standard time. They also said everything was in place to stop changing as soon as the States committed to stopping.
We should be doing this in October.
