President Donald Trump has ordered the U.S. to stop minting pennies. His surprise announcement comes after decades of unsuccessful efforts to phase out the 1-cent coin.
The numbers on the clock have magical powers as far as what time I am expected to report to work. Most people do not start work at 4:30am when the sun come up (if you do NOT change the clocks), so that would mean more hours of the day lost. If you have the energy to get up early and do things for work, great for you, but the rest of us sleep until the alarm and use that extra evening hour to get things done. Now it’s easy to say 50% of the population is wrong when we look at the current administration, but having the sub come up at 4:30am doesn’t really help you and for most people it means trying to get those last couple hours of sleep while the sun is shining in your eyes. What you’re suggesting is useful for a small handful of people in exchange for fewer hours of good rest for the majority of the population.

The problem isn’t the numbers on the clock, it’s that your boss is making you show up too early (or late). Whether that time is called 4:30 or 5:30 or 6783465876 or π, the problem is that that’s too goddamn early (or late) in the day.
