Sorry, $tevie, but Daylight Saving Time is the REASON for it being dark when you leave work in the early fall. Fall back, remember? You set your clocks back an hour. So suddenly it gets dark at six o'clock, in standard time, instead of five o'clock, daylight saving time.
This is correct. I hate it. Would much rather go to work in the dark and not have it feel like bedtime when I leave work.
I'm on the very eastern edge of my time zone so it gets dark a full hour earlier here than the western edge.
