Leap Forward… Into Time Zone Chaos
March 9, 2007
News.com kindly published an FAQ: What the daylight saving shift means to you. Many are in a tizzy because of this extremely disruptive initiative by the U.S. to extend daylight savings time by four weeks. It’s caused Y2K-like headaches for many software developers and businesses. The travel industry certainly has had it’s panties in a bunch about it.
This too shall pass. Don’t run to the grocer for milk and bread. But consider the following:
- Obviously, don’t forget to set your clocks (according to your time zone) when you go to bed Saturday night.
- Download and install your Operating System updates and security patches ASAP.
- Don’t worry about your cell phone. Time should be auto-updated by the carrier network.
- Sleep late Sunday morning.
- Expect everyone to be late to your meetings and conference calls on Monday. Better yet, call in sick and deal with it Tuesday.
- Live every day as if it were your last.
Sleep well.
-Roland
