That's because Congress thinks you're weird.
Well, but I don't know any adults that are not SAHM who don't have to be to work at 8:00 am or before. I would think that most adults in my city/area are awake by 6, at least.
You walk in worlds the others can't begin to imagine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I get into the office at 8:30. I have co-workers who don't get in until after 9:30. Of course, I get up way early to get here, because I live far away, but you'll hear employees bitch if a meeting's early enough that they need to wake up before 8.

Wow-- I just live on another planet! How late do you have to stay?
(Also, I should have said I don't know any adults in my area-- as I know that people in larger cities seem to have to be at work later)

My hours used to be 9:30 - 5:30. Then they extended them to 6:30. But now that I'm my own boss, my hours are more like 10:00 - 5:00.

That's not too bad. I work 8- 4:30-- my old job was 8 - 5. No one seems to care if I come in at 8:30, but almost everyone except the big boss (who comes in around 11) is here by 7:30 - 8:00.

Thrive to spite them
My body is so ready for the time change. My alarm goes off in the morning and it's dark and I'm cold and all I want to do is snuggle under the covers. This week it's been worse and I was late to work.
The same thing happens in the Spring though, I get antsy and uncomfortable and start counting the days until the time change.
Now they are going to mess with things.
This will also mean that the areas that don't observe Daylight Savings time will be off from the rest of the country for extra months.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
When I lived in Philly, everyone I knew started their workday at 9:00. Seattle people are crazy early-risers by comparison, but I've never gotten in trouble for working 9-6 when all around me are doing 8-5 or even 7:30-4:30, as long as I manage to stagger in for early meetings. Once I get a job again, I'll have to give up my night owl ways, though, since daycares like you to get the kidlets by 6:00.

10:30 to 6:30-7:00 for me, but that's my own choice--my boss works from home for a few hours, and then comes in from 10 to 4, and the rest of the department works anywhere from 7:30-4 to my hours.
