Some jocks liked working midnights, so they could "daylight" at other jobs, hobbies, etc.
I have no proof, but it has been suggested, Barney Pip was on midnights because he suffered from maniac depression known today as Bi-polar. It allowed him to take more time off when necessary. He checked himself into the hospital twice, for extended stays. The 1st time the PD allowed him back with no issues. The 2nd PD (forgot his name) fired Barney.
There is no more midnight shift on most stations. They just terminate people on command!
