If you are interviewing for customer service or sales, chances are you will need to be open to working a variety of shifts. Normally, this should be spelled out in the job description or on their website. Don't let this question catch you off guard! The more open your availability, the better.

I am very flexible with working different shifts and overtime, this is something I have done in the past, and will happily do it again. Once I had to help my team achieve a goal of mass-producing some parts for manufacturing, we had a tight schedule and had to put on an emergency double shift. There were 4 guys, I included, as part of a team, 3 of us could accommodate the new shift pattern but one guy could not, so to help the team in this situation, I offered myself to work a permanent late shift and work around my shift partner so he could take his daughter to school and pick her up without any hassle. this worked great and we achieved our goal.

Great. Again, drawing on a past example of your willingness to be flexible is great and your use of example is extremely effective.
