Productivity. It gives the company and increase productivity when you have fresh-ish workers vs burnt out ones in the "undesirable shifts" and have to pay them a fuck ton more to work those shifts to compensate those who have to constantly work those other shifts. But rotating shifts like this really screws up worker health and their circadian rhythm but hey, more profit for the company.

At this point I"m sure the media only associates religion with crazy people because they want people to stop believing in souls altogether.
Nah, pretty sure it's because so many religious people are just kinda crazy
Yeah, they do weird things like believe in souls
Jeez. Rotations like that exist in "Western Countries" since what, 50 years? 60? That's not new and the "surprise" here shows that you, dear poster, must be new to the game.
Anyhow, where i live and work (somewhere in Germany) you get paid extra for night and extra extra if shift is during the night on a week end.
Is that shit nice? Ok, no. Does it pay? Fuck, yes. All of my colleagues doing this since 20ish years bitch BUT have a house, two cars, fly to vacations to turkey and shit.
Your learning?
-
Accept, that this shit exists and will always exist.

Unionize. Have companies pay you fairly for what you do.

Stop whining. As long as you whine, you are a victim. Victims dont act or unionize or take things into their hands. Victims cry, roll on their tears and get fucked. THATS what companies like, cause you're easy to deal with.
