Never ‘officially’, but I get called sometimes when fires happen. There was one stretch where I was the only developer available and must’ve had 4 or 5 fires within a few weeks. It’s always anxiety inducing when I get the call because I would have little idea what it’s about.

I don’t know how I would cope with being on-call officially, whether I’d be able to relax and forget about it or remain a ball of anxiety throughout.
