So change it... just permanently. GMT+2 will always be there for you.

Then you will have the opposite problem in winter. Sunrises would be 9am-10am for about three months.

At least you'd get some sun after work. Here in Norway, the only way to get sunlight during a workday in winter is to go out during lunch break. While I do acknowledge that getting sunlight in the morning is more important than in the afternoon, I feel like subjectively I'd have more use for a little bit more sunlight after work than before work.

That means waking up for work 2-3 hours before sunrise, and starting work before dawn.

I'd very gladly have a more natural sleep schedule than some sun in the afternoon.

Maybe we should go back to sundials.
Then sun rises at 9am in the winter, which is too late.

Our daylight moves with the seaons. So therefor our clock does as well.

I understand some countries that are much closer to the equator might question it now but for us it just makes sense.
