> Pretty much all of embedded firmware or hardware driver development. Any hardware used in something that has an on-call process, itself has an on-call process (or is from somewhere large enough to offer follow-the-sun support).

That's also a vanishingly small portion of employment in the games industry. > Mobile app developers. Again, most mobile apps are... for some kind of web service, or have some kind of backend, and so have some kind of on-call team. > The many software developers that provide solutions for enterprise software with 9-5 support contracts Examples? Just because not everyone is paying for the 5-9 contract, doesn't mean it's not there. > Whole fields of consulting and integration experts that set their own hours. Yes. What percentage of the industry is independent consultants? Why would you include them when I already qualified "full-time software engineers"?
