IBM actually have a 36 hour global day. 36 hours work are done in any 24 hour
period from the point of reference. They divide the world up into 4 x 9 hour
segments and as one programming shift is going home in Baton Rouge, the next
group is taking over the same project in Stockholm followed by those in Delhi

36 hours work done from the time they come in each morning.
