I'm on a 24/7 pager one week every month, it blows, but it pays the bills. Fortunately I can log in from home for afterhours calls. This morning @ 4am was a full file system on openVMS, the night before was a windows issue, the same night was unix problem. I hate the pager, but I hate outsourcing more, so I can't complain to mgmt.
