The actual hotmail email was hacked years ago but doesn't matter in this case, I have a Google account that uses a hotmail email address and I know the password.
I made this account 14 years ago when I was a teenager. I didn't even know my YouTube was tied to this Hotmail Google Account until the past week or that it even existed.
I was ghosted by a US based famous alt-search recruiter after I asked question about work-life balance and timezone issues. Evidently they were looking for willing-to-be-always-available resources in countries like mine (which is honestly often the case).
I can't remember the last time I worked more than 3 hours, being done by lunch time everyday is great. If I work in the afternoon it is just mandatory meetings.
100% agree with these comments. I will never do unpaid on-call, a gas engineer is paid for being on-call, software shouldn't be any different. Its most likely because their are many people in software who will work on call for free, I see it first hand at my current company.
