1. I set my laptop machine to east coast time (TZ=America/New_York)
2. I set retirement time for a vm to February 1-st, 6:10 AM (still east coast time)
3. In rails console:

> vm = VmOrTemplate.find_by :name => 'amaya-at'
...
> vm.retires_on
=> Fri, 01 Feb 2019 11:10:00 UTC +00:00

Which I'd say is perfectly correct.

Drew, do you still see this problem on our end in current master? Or is perhaps my
understanding of the described problem incorrect?

Thanks.

Works on master. Sorry, Milan! Thanks for looking at this, though.
