Simple. Do you like sleeping in a clean bed or a filthy bed?
Just kidding (mostly). I think this really breaks down along blue/white collar lines. If you spend your work day turning wrenches, doing physical labor, etc, you’re going to want to shower in the evening.
If you go to an air conditioned office and sit at a computer most of the day, you’ll likely want to showers as close to the start of the day and show up for the job as clean as possible.
I also think it’s easier for a white collar worker to get by showering at night than a blue collar worker to get by with showering in the morning.
Carpenter here, this is correct. If I showered only in the morning, I’d develop an acne problem and mess up my sheets. I would live in pretty serious discomfort in my evenings, dusty and sticky. Showering morning and night would be fine, but morning only would be extremely nasty. You can’t do that with a dirty job unless you are an absolute creature.
It’s weird because as a blue collar worker I could never stand going into work dirty, but as a white collar worker working from home I typically shower in the evening (though I did oftentimes shower again in the evening as the former).

I would also say that a typical start time for blue collar workers make morning showers less likely
