This discrepancy could explain a lot:

vs

>       stats_per_shift_filtered_b0206.wsft,

Your problem query has a WHERE clause testing wsft, so this difference
is subtly affecting what that WHERE clause means.  That could result in
a plan change, thereby changing the row output order, which as already
noted would be sufficient to explain the inconsistency.

If I had to bet I'd suspect that the extra cast is blocking use of an
index on wsft.
