Oooh, fair point. I do think that's still tricky now (I work with an international team) but it definitely wouldn't get any better

EDIT: WAIT unless the date switched over at 00:00 every day no matter where you were

It would be annoying to be the many people whose work or waking hours were on "MonTues" though lol

Even better would be the various laws relating to things that are geographically bound.

Labor laws for teenagers over 16 typically state that they can't work during the hours of 0700 to 1500 Monday through Friday, 2200 to 0600 Sunday through Thursday, and 2330 to 0600 on Fridays and Saturdays during the school year.

Imagine the nightmare of what that all turns into when day change happens in the middle of those blocks of time.
A lot of labor laws and accounting in general become terrible.

The many people

8/24 time zones, or 1/3rd of the planet would deal with that at work.

Just put them in the pacific ocean.
