I had a job where the CTO of the company said "obviously none of us want to be woken up at three in the morning for a production issue, but if we're never being paged then we're probably moving too slow." He was very big on the "it's ok to break production, just don't make same mistake twice" mantra, which I like.



"if we're never being paged then we're probably moving too slow"

Or you are at a company that respects your time at home and doesn't wake you at 3am. I personally might not even hear the phone.
