16 shifts * 2 people per shift = 32 shifts per week, divided by 5 shifts
per person per week = 7 people (you have to round up).    So you'd only
need 8-11 folks if some of them are going to be part time, right?

Also, consider 12 hour shifts for the weekends so there are only 2
shifts per day regardless of weekday vs. weekend.  12 hour shifts are
long but it could simplify scheduling.

Sorry, bet you didn't ask for advice.  Curious how you arrived at the
8-11 number though.
