Talking call ins is honorable, I was the only one taking call ins for 2 1/2 
years at my old job, No matter what time in the night. It got so frequent I 
just ended up taking the night shift to ensure the place ran smoothy 24/7 and 
it did right up to the covid shutdown. 

The best thing was they paid you 4 hours just to punch in plus your time.
So 4 1/2 hours to replace a fuse and leave only to get called back 3 minutes 
into driving home, worked another two hours on another machine got paid 10 1/2
hours plus I worked a 10 hour shift already that day. Do this two to four 
times a week I was making some serious loot.

Unfortunatly the Government also made some serious loot. :|
