GE Lynn has a paid machinist training program with union membership day 1. Once you complete the program you are guaranteed placement in any open job at above starting rate.

It might be a bit challenging, I dunno about other home owners but I check what permits people have pulled, how many jobs they've done a year which is easy to do in Boston. If that number is 0, I'd go with someone else. You might want to try to do some small jobs on the cheap, and get people to hype you up on NextDoor or something.

Not really. Most internet enabled devices would probably get it on their regular round of updates. Just a switch to no longer flip between $ST and $DT. Most apps go by system time anyway so they’ll go by whatever device time is. The only thing that would be a pain would be anything that doesn’t receive automatic updates or anything not internet-connected.

We need more sun in the morning to actually get up. Having sunrise be so late would make it harder to get up, plus it's worse for humans body clocks.

They tried permanent DST in the 70's, it didn't even last a year before they stopped it. We need to just stay on standard time, it just makes the most sense.
