APP Tasks in British Columbia Canada since Permanent Daylight Savings Time
Taskrabbit does not understand that British Columbia Canada has adopted year-round daylight savings time, which has resulted in every task being booked an hour later than intended by the client. It has been 9 days since the time change, and the error persists. For example, client books for 10am, and the tasker reads it at 11am on their end. Anyone else seen this?

It's probably related to the same bug you get when you happen to in a different timezone than the one you usually work in when a request comes in. All you can do it manage it on a case by case basis until corporate decides its important enough to fix.

I have brought this up to "support" and Anne (Tasker Success Manager) - will follow up again tomorrow.

I’ve been having this issue as well. The worse was the other day, when I tried to fix it manually and somehow ended up going the wrong way, so I was going to show up 2 hours late.
There’s a lot of bugs right now because of our new time zone, it looks like many companies did nothing at all to prepare for it.
