Mmhhh, not when they have to wake up in the morning... :-)

I am very sensitive to this issue, because while I have never been
insomniac (I usually fall asleep as soon as I hit the bed) it appears
that my biological clock is regulated on a day of 25 hours, meaning
that I have to adjust to a one-hour jet-lag each and every day. Not
too pleasant indeed.

In fact, I love when I travel westward, because for a while my
suffering is decreased for a while...
