Most people have to be. They have to be in work at a set time. Their children need to be in school for a set time. Shops open and close at set times. Even if their work has flexibility, chances are that their partner's doesn't, or their friends don't.
I'd be happy to either have it, or not have it. But the idea that most companies are going to allow more flexibility feels more like a pipe-dream than anything that's likely to happen soon (and it's not just public sector stuff, only one private-sector job I've had has had flexitime, and private schools are similarly regimented).

I'm acctually less hung up on it than I used to be, but Summer Time always felt artificial.

I think it's also good for the company too. And I wish more companies would take it on. But I'm not holding my breath.
