if i ruled the world…

  • daylight savings time would never end. therefore the sun would not set at 5pm, or some insanely early hour. mornings would be ok because…
  • the standard hours of business will be 10am to 6pm. there will be no need to wake up at 6am in the morning
  • as a means of reducing commuter traffic, businesses will split up employees into 2 shifts… the 10am to 4pm shift and the 12pm to 6pm shift.
  • four day work weeks! employees chose which day they want off. this also will help ease commuting.
  • non-essential workers/business would shut down if the temperature dips below freezing and winds are gusting above 20 mph or the windchill temperature (temperature + effects of wind) is less than 0. a liberal leave policy would be in effect.
  • businesses must give unlimited sick leave to all employees… tho it sucks because u can no longer use sick days as vacations towards the end of the year (as my dad used to do at his old company)
  • drivers who perform the following actions would have their licenses revoked
  • ride the left lane while going below the speed limit
  • change lanes without signaling
  • make a left turn from any lane besides the leftmost lane, or make a right turn from any lane besides the rightmost lane
  • rubbernecking
  • any other idiotic driving
  • the holiday of thanksgiving will be given the entire week. this should also ease thanksgiving holiday commuting.
  • added to the list of national holidays:
  • boxing day, the day after christmas (because it’s fun to say)
  • 3rd monday in september, in observance of h.a. rey’s birthday (september 16)
  • 3rd monday in may, in observance of margret rey’s birthday (may 16)
  • spring break, first week of april

sure… the world would be a whole lot less functional, but at least i’d enjoy myself more.
