Variable scheduling of staff is often deemed more fair, but I think it makes
things less stable.  People are constantly having to change their life.

Rotating shifts between daytime and nighttime is a horrible thing to
do to your workers, both for their health and their attention span.
Full-time night work isn't great, but rotating work is even worse.
Apes are generally diurnal, not nocturnal or crepuscular.   Shuffling
who has to work which days is annoying enough.

And Google probably logs and indexes everything you send it.
