Move to a place where your body clock hours align with the hours of your remote employment. Move to a place where the society is later at night. Be a star performer so that the managers don’t care that you show up after “lunch” because you lock the building when you’re done and get all your work done.

I work with a lot of Chinese and Indian people, and they often work into the late nights to match the US hours.

I have moved to a place now where my work hours are from about 8pm to 5am as a “9-5 job”. I get up in the afternoon like I enjoy. Do anything I want like appointments, errands, sports, leisure, etc. Have “dinner”, then start work and work through the night.

The place I moved also tends to be a late people. Early morning is 10am, dinner is 8pm, and the restaurants near me are bustling until 2am, and some are going strong to 5am. Children play in the parks and public spaces at 1am.

This artificial morning people stupidness can be escaped.

I assure you, I do not cope at all. That’s why I’m up at night, when the rest of modern society is asleep.
