I used to be 50% on-call and it was exhausting. I was just glued to my backpack with laptop in it. It just was BAD.
Even that I had very good manager and if something broke at night I could just disable all the morning alarms and get to office when I wake up… but still. Having all the time in head that you're responsible… nope.
When I stopped being on on-calls it was like HUGE breath to take, and clean the head. I feel a lot better now.
