Yeah east coast sucks for it. I hated basketball season working at the prison cause I often had to turn off a close game and tell the inmates to go to bed. I could only leave it on if the OIC approved it and she was a bitch so I wouldn't even ask. General rule of thumb was if it wasn't a championship game the answer was no.
If it was like mere seconds left I would try to let them finish but I've seen 2.5 seconds end up lasting 5 minutes
I put my heart and soul into my work and I fear I have lost my mind in the process
