Was rudely woken up by his cell phone telling him he was on call for emergency coverage. Got up to turn on computer equipment and sign on a bunch of systems.

Will go back to bed for a bit now.

I hope that you’re getting paid ot for all this on call work.

ugh. rude awakenings are the worst.

Nope. Not getting paid. My manager is using the "and other duties as required" clause in their job description document.

That may require to be on call, not not allow them to get out of paying you for your time.

Won’t be long. Retiring soon and I see my company being absorbed into the parent company when COVID ends

ugh
