Working in daylight

Well, it’s that time of year again… the time where it seems that all the daylight hours are spent locked up at work. Want some time to yourself? Better like it dark!

This is a stupid system. If I’ve got to spend 8 hours working, why on earth would I select the only 8 hours of daylight?

What would it be like if we could try to arrange our work hours so that we got some daylight to ourselves? Assuming one has to work an 8 hour day, it would seem quite easy enough to swap an afternoon of work for the equivalent amount of daylight time.

For example, I tend to work from about 10 am to about 6 pm daily. A simple daylight-preserving work schedule might be to work from 10 until noon, then stop working from noon until 6 pm, then work until midnight.

Worth a shot? Perhaps I’ll give it a try sometime soon, no more than a few times a week I think.
