Finally gets to sleep around 2-3am, sleeps for 2.5 hours then awakens for Wednesday, 5am show to fly for 5 hours back to LAS. All 117 legal.

Pay is 10 hours. And the fact that it's very commutable really just makes it less safe (on the front end).

Min Calendar Day will not solve this (as mgt will just move the 1st show time to after midnight).
