A Minute With All Five On Duty
Five security guards each work one shift during a day. All shift endpoints are drawn independently and uniformly over the day, then paired off: the first two draws bound guard 1's shift, the next two bound guard 2's, and so on (each guard's earlier draw is the start, the later one the end). What is the probability there is some moment when all five guards are on duty simultaneously?
