Hilarious but my organization has a policy to account for this. It's ultra bullshit.
EDIT: For context, I work for state government and support critical infrastructure, so being available after normal work hours is expected. It's still bullshit though.
Terrible company then.
Every enterprise level org I've worked for has had strong rules about not engaging after-hours.
They understand of you're working after hours you're going to be useless the next day. Consistency is more important.
I was once told that I could have meetings all day because I had all night to finish my code.
Do you get paid for being on stand-by? If not you're being robbed.
Presumably you get an on call rate factored into your pay.
Have your own rules?
