Over time, working remotely, many of my team are in different time-zones. Some in London, New York, and L.A. which all have wildly different time-zones. I have to be sometimes like a cat (who are known to sleep a lot since they need to build up enough energy to pounce on wild animals without notice and do that straight away without hesitation).
So I'm used to being paged in real-time to 'pounce' on critical issues. I'm on-call like a fireman. If anyone's working remotely here reading this, this is a skill that is learned.
