Some employees at UCSF do this -- They can get on a 7-on/7-off schedule, fly in from somewhere more reasonable (often Denver or somewhere in the Midwest), stay on a couch for a week, earn a SF salary then fly back to a $1,500/month mortgage somewhere else.

'Stay on a couch for a week' - pretty large pre-requisite here..

I don't disagree, but they often have coworkers who work opposite shifts (7am - 7pm vs. 7pm - 7am) so they can share an apartment space without running into each other too much.
