The Soda Summit police chief just announced a new shift schedule to her department. In the past, police have always worked eight-hour shifts, five days a week. Now, the chief wants the officers to work ten-hour shifts, four days a week. Her goal is to reduce overtime.

The police officers’ union in Soda Summit is very powerful, and, in the long run, it will decide whether or not the officers follow the new schedule.
