Time zones simply create a workable 'day' and 'night'. If countries didn't use time zones (and the whole planet worked on the same time), people would be going to bed at (for example) 9am just because it was dark then. Time zones bring sensibility to daily life.

The only disadvantage - is having to adjust to different times when you travel overseas. For example - it might be 8am when you depart, but (after travelling through a number of time zones) - it might only be 2am local time.
