I'm a freight conductor and yard shifts have similar times. For example, tomorrow my shift is 06:32-14:32. They never explain why, you just show up when you're told.

The annoying one starts at 23:57.

That seems exceedingly efficient for the system in place — and clearly lacking any consideration for the human element of that labor pool.

Sounds like a place where you are addressed by your employee ID number.
