As a professional restaurant bartender, and someone who has always preferred to be up late at night and sleep during the day as much as possible, for me it's very much variable.
I tend to get home from work between 11-12 at night on Friday Saturday and Sunday, and I'm at work from 930 to 3 Monday through Wednesday. Sometimes I'll work Tuesday or Wednesday night instead of during the day.
But I like being up at night so on days when I work 10-3, I get 3-4 hours, then take a nap when i get home so I can be up most of the night. When I work a night shift, I go to sleep around 6 am and sleep until 2 ish. On my day off, I make up my sleep deficit. Because I'll go to bed like at 12 on Wednesday night and sleep until 12-3 pm Thursday.

My sleep patterns are...unusual and likely unhealthy lol.
I love freeways and roads in any state but Texas will always be first in my heart

Things change fast sometimes. I was a server/bartender/manager for a long time. I would regularly be up until 2 or 3 every night. Then I became the food and beverage director at a hotel and we did three meals a day, so I opened three days a week and had to be at work at 5:30. Now I'm an early bird.

I won't lie.  It was pretty great having the Lions gate over before 9 PM last night.  Not that the Lions played Monday Night Football when I was a kid.

I didn't love the sports timing when I lived in Seattle. At the time, I was still serving and I missed being able to get off work, grab a beer and watch the end of the west coast games. Mountain time is the best for sports for sure.
