My employer’s computer system is so old …and the devs that know how to work on it are all retired… they can’t fix it with to add or adjust the new time zones. So instead of calling one of the retired guys to come contract out to fix it, like they did for a different system change they did a few years ago, they’re just going to leave it and make us all operate in a different time zone at work.
The issue is that its a national operation so the difference between provinces that changed and provinces that didn’t change creates the problem.
They would either need to create new time zone profiles for the provinces ditching daylight savings or they would have to manually swap the time zones of certain locations in the system every 6 months. I gather that both are now beyond the IT department’s
ability.

No one knows how to adjust the time to UTC-x on an AS400?

Yukon time exists and it’s a perfect interim match.
