I've read stuff that confirms that changing to a later shift is much
easier than changing to an earlier one.  It certainly matches my
experience that the jet lag flying to Europe, where I have to get up
six hours earlier, is much worse than flying back.

It also makes the obvious point that fewer shift changes are easier on
the employees than more.
