So, I need to either sell my house, or get a different job it seems. When I'm on call (I'm in the IT field), I have to respond to an incident within 5 minutes, to acknowledge the incident and report that I'm working on it. My drive home, however, is longer than 5 minutes by a factor of 20 or so. If the occasional call during drive-time wasn't possible, I would not be able to do my job and live where I do. Not an acceptable limitation in my mind. Dave Hinz
