What a usable overlap costs
To share 4 hours, you start at 07:30, or they work until 18:30. Somebody pays, and the only question is who.
Every weekday of 2026
130 of your 261 weekdays give you 3½ hours rather than 2½ — 6 Apr – 2 Oct. Sydney changes its clocks and you do not. Half the year is a different arrangement from the other half.
