I'm amazed it doesn't happen more often. HEMS ignores the human factors in scheduling routinely. Work days for a period, off 24 hours and go to night shifts? They pretend 'jet lag' hasn't been in the general vernacular for 60+ years. Circadian disruption, poor sleep, count the ways that that is stupid.
