I missed my time of arrival at work couple of times when I was on call. I would get a two hours notice by phone at midnight for example, to appear on the job at 2am. It only takes about 15 minutes to drive to work and I feel very drowsey so I thought I would just nod off for about an hour. Ring ring ring.. "oh shit! I'll be there SAP!"
That was forgivable once or twice but we were advised to get proper rest during the day in anticipation of being called at any time. I was a brakeman for CN Rail.
