Do people shrink during the day?
I set my driver seat so that I can see past the middle point of the Mercedes star on the hood and it is every morning the case when I drive to work. However in the evening on the way home the star is only visible above the center. The difference is maybe 1/4 inch. Do people shrink that much during the day? I don't have a heavy job, just a office worker, I wonder whether professional movers suffer more shrinkage?

yes. It is a well known fact.
You " stretch " in your sleep and shrink during the day.

Yep, your joints in your spine compress due to gravity during the day when you're upright (or sitting etc...) and the overall compression is like 1/4" to 1/2" or so.
