Heh. If the job involved interacting with the public, what's wrong with
that question?

You do realize that question really means "willing" (or "able"), right?
It doesn't mean you have to be deliriously happy about working extra
hours.

Some people can't work certain hours. They may or may not hire you
depending on the shift. Then again, lots of people are willing to work
overtime. Time-and-a-half or double-time pay.
