Time zones shouldn't exist. There should just be UTC time and you would go to work at the equivalent of your morning time.

Tabs, not spaces.

I don't give a shit if your arguments perfectly align to the function. It's only semantic indication. Use the goddamn special character that has its own dedicated key.

All dates should be formatted according to ISO 8601 standard (YYYY-MM-DD).

Months should be adjusted so September, October, November, and December are the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th month respectively (so the literally meaning of the names accords with their actual meaning).

Not cleaning your kitchen knife after sharpening is trashy and contaminates your food with metal shavings.
