Monday night start-up

Posted by Almost Postal on May 15, 2002 at 16:05:24:

We have a monday night start-up for third shift and it really kills our weekend. If you have school age kids, they are home on Saturdays while we have a sleep requirement. Most social activities happen on saturdays and in order to attend we either go like sleepless zombies or must miss work Friday night and lose a days pay.

Does anyone know of any studies that show increased productivity for Sunday night start-ups versus Monday night start-ups so we can show our employer?
