A long time ago, in a place far, far away, the PTB determined that we 
should change from a three-team, three-8-hour shifts, 5 days a week 
("days", "evenings", and "nights" (aka "graves" or "graveyard") for 7 x 
24 coverage, to a four-team, 12 1/2 hour day 3 day week (and you know, I 
have forgotten how we covered the 7th day!).

For the 2nd-level managers like me, the reaction was "Wow!  I will only 
have to work 12-18 hours three days a week!
