On-call, on someone else’s rota. Guest notes about the hours around an incident.

I have carried a pager for eleven years, at a payments company, a hospital system, and now a team of six that ships to hospitals. I write about the part of reliability that does not fit in a dashboard: who gets woken, how often, and what it costs the week after.
I am a guest here. Ada and I worked the same rota for two years, and the arithmetic in my notes is the argument we kept having about it.
