Nineteen states have passed legislation to make daylight saving time permanent. But those laws won’t take effect until Congress makes it legal. And the medical community sees one major problem.

    Every work an overnight shift? Everyone I know who does it ends up switching to “normal” hours on weekend just because all their friends and family live normal hours. Normally you sleep when everyone else is eating lunch, so every holiday you are switching to a normal schedule. Even if you try to keep the same schedule, almost nothing is open at 2am so you can’t do any shopping on your weekend if you don’t switch to follow the local world.

      And then daylight savings rolls around and if you happen to be on shift you work an extra hour for free.
