Is this the reason they want to make Nth Queensland a separate state?

Doesn't it make the carpets fade   >:D

The extra daylight makes everything fade quicker.

I'll try that next time I go to work.  It'll make an easy day for the Cabin Crew because we'll take off before any of the passengers have checked in.  I'm sure they'll understand that their flight departed early for the convenience of the pilot, and so sorry, no more flights until tomorrow!

Then I'll go look for another job.   :angel:

Now being more sensible, I have not yet heard a rational reason for not having daylight saving.  Curtains don't fade, there is no more daylight, and the temperature change from one hour to the next is greatest in the mornings, not mid afternoon when schools get out.  Poor little kiddies, never dun us no harm when I wuz yung.

I couldn't understand why it would bother you in your situation at all. As wouldn't your hours be all over the place anyway? Or do all flights leave at 9:00am and land at 5:00pm?

I don't see any rational reason we need it in Qld.

There is still the same amount of daylight hours in the day. Get up early and enjoy the best part of the day doing what you want!
It's a no vote for me!

But I am self employed and I only work the hours I want anyway.

Flew into Brisbane Saturday afternoon -  was really bumpy as we went over the boarder where the time zone changes. It was like going back in time!
