As much as I like digging,debugging and learning that comes with it, fixing things under tremendous time pressure wears me out :(

When I was on-call for a big project, I jumped every time my phone rang. It wasn't a good experience at all.
"We are at the fair, I have 18 customers lined up but I can't take orders. Can you fix this now or should I start taking them on paper?"
You know the joke that atheists don't believe in god until the plane nosedives? That was the moment for me :)
"Oh, I... I need to see the error message before I can say anything. We don't have any errors logged. Hmm... Would you allow me to remote into your device?"
"Can't do that. We lost the internet connection here, sorry."
Ugh.
