while I suggested going for one somewhere, some people were already in the way home mindset.
I do not like this quitter mindset. I'm glad you found a few people to keep the night going. I also really enjoy these conversations, when you can get your work people out of work mode and have those genuine interactions outside of the workplace (and a little alcohol never hurts).
It is an absolutely ridiculous practice.
Arizona is a seemingly lawless place to live, but one thing this state got spot on correct was getting rid of this daylight savings time. While it was great for keeping the sun and timing consistent year round, it is a little annoying to have to adjust as everyone else around you does move their clocks. There's always a few goofs in those first few weeks after the switch, but it is great having sun in the sky around the same place year round.
When we are out of usual context, our mindset changes and our thoughts shift into other topics. It is freeing!
I guess in Arizona, there isn't a big difference in light?
Here where I am, the change is massive. midsummer there is about 19 hours of sun above the horizon - in mid winter, about 5 hours of it above :)
Spot on... Arizona is one of the southern states, so it has a more consistent sun/moon schedule. I just assume it has a range +/- 2 hours or so.
