Don’t worry, employers will move things back to be inconvenient again soon.

I don’t think they will. There’s no incentive for them to do so, and there’s absolutely monolithic inertia behind “nine-to-five” in most places on Earth.

Ah, there are plenty of employers and industries that don’t have that luxury though. Also, even my 9-5 was not so 9-5 a decent chunk of the time when I was working big corp due to having to work with folks in other countries. It does remove one variable though.

That's regional though. Where I live, work generally starts at 8.

Now that I work closely with a team in India, my morning meeting doesn't care about DST.
But at least now it's only slightly early instead of when/before I would normally get up.

Yeah, that always messed me up too. So silver linings I guess?

Literally #1 on my list of reasons to get a new job by November is I'm not going to that meeting ever again.
There's the objective set of reasons to do something, and then there's the list your emotional brain actually pays attention to, and this is #1 on that list. Most of our weird behaviors and a lot of our difficult conversations are caused by trying to stuff an emotional decision into a business suit.
