Many people are on call 24 hours and must have a beeper or cell phone .

I think the people that are really that important probably have no interest in going to the movies, anyway.

Not that I really believe that anyone is that important anyway.

The only Person I can think of who is on call 24/7 is the President of the US.

I'm not important. I'm a nobody. Unfortunately my boss (the somebody)is out of town a lot and I get stuck on call. I treasure my time off and the staff know this. My calls are necessary ones.

Now my DH, is a VIP. He lives and breathes his job. I noticed the other day, that he's wearing one of those ear pieces. Please.... lol.

Boy, is that a narrow view! You obviously don't know anyone who works in a 24x7 industry. There are many of us. Personally, I have been on call 24x7 since February of 1998. When I go into a theater I put my phone on vibrate. If it rings I don't answer it there, but leave and return the call outside in the hall. I'm not "that important" until my particular skills or knowledge are needed. :-)
