I feel good about time changing early this year because, you have more light, to work with so you could, make more money with certain jobs, like the constuction field my husband does. You could do alot with your kids too.
I live in Arizona so I don't have the time change. I kind of miss it though. Like you said...my husband is in construction and it would give him more work time for a while. I hate it getting dark so early.
