Heh. I worked on a help desk for years. I had to be there by 7AM when
the phones turned on automatically. We were located in the US Central
time zone. But a lot of our offices were open an hour earlier, so we
opened at 7AM. There was also a 9:30- 6PM shift to cover the offices
who were on Pacific time. No big deal.

I understand wanting the day shift, for sure. But being up, showered
and dressed (not to mention at work) by 8:00 a.m. isn't asking too much.
