Oncall shift should be Tuesday to Tuesday

What Jamie wrote
The main thing I learned in this article was this…
Since the work week starts on a Monday usually people schedule it Monday to Monday.
I wonder if that is really true? I've operated in technology on-call rotations for nearly 30 years and have never done Monday rotations. In our team right now we rotate on-call on Wednesday's at 12:00 PM CT, which works really well. Seems close enough to Tuesdays, and maybe better.
Same wins that are highlighted.
- Better for Holidays
- Better followup of weekend issues
- Better for weekly tasks
The worst day I can think of would be Friday's with Monday's a close second.
