Fall is when you loose an hour of daylight in the evening, gain an hour of daylight in the morning, and gain an hour of sleep time.
You gain an hour of sleep when Daylight Saving Time ends in November. This is because the clocks are set back by one hour, providing an extra hour for sleep.
In the spring you lose an hour (spring forward).In the fall you gain an hour (fall back).In MarchIf you go to sleep under Standard Time, and reset your clock when you do, you lose your first house of sleep. If you want to get the same hours of sleep, you will have to reset your clock during the evening, lose the hour then, and go to sleep under Daylight Savings Time.In OctoberIf you go to sleep under Daylight Savings Time, and reset your clock when you do, you will gain an hour of sleep (you sleep the same hour as your last hour before going to sleep).
You lose an hour in the spring and gain an hour in the fall...so It all ends up normal in the end.
When daylight saving time or summer time begins, you lose an hour. For example, if you live in a place where daylight saving time starts at 2 AM, like the United States, Canada, or England, you lose the hour from 2:00 to 3:00, so a minute after 1:59 AM is 3:00 AM.

We have day light savings because Benjiman Franklin said to.

Unfortunately not in most cases. The employer's and most North American labour law's theory is that when you lose the hour, you'll make it back up at the other end of daylight savings time, when you gain the hour. In my experience, this rarely works out that way, and is the reason I refuse to work on that particular shift.
Daylight Savings Time was designed to "capture" early morning hours of daylight by moving them into the work day and afternoon. In this way, people on a fixed hourly schedule would not have to adjust their work times to take advantage of an earlier sunrise. It is done automatically by adding an hour when the local sunrise is between 6 and 6:30 AM.

Gain. Spring ahead, fall back. In spring, we set our clocks ahead 1 hour from 2:00 am to 3:00 am so we lose that hour. In fall, we set our clocks back by an hour from 2:00 am to 1:00 am, so we gain that hour. In the fall you gain an hour. At 2 AM, the clock is set back to 1 AM ("Fall back"), and the hour from 1-2 AM is repeated. If you went to bed at 10 PM (DST) and got up at 6 AM (ST), you would have been in bed 9 hours. In the spring is when you lose the hour. At 2 AM, the clock is set ahead to 3 AM ("spring forward") and the hour from 2-3 AM is skipped. If you went to bed at 10 PM (ST) and got up at 6 AM (DST), you would have been in bed 7 hours.
You sleep the same. Just at different hours.
You gain one hour for each time zone when travelling east.
In my opinion no because when you work by the hour you get paid for the hours you work. Some companies actually pay the hour that isn't worked. However, that's just an incentive, as most companies shouldn't have to pay for an hour you never worked. * I am a nurse and midwife and have worked both ends of the year and as far as I am aware you are paid the nominal length of the shift whether it is an hour longer or an hour shorter. Swings and roundabouts I am afraid.
