I keep my cell phone next to my ear when I go to sleep.

I did too, and I didn't get much sleep in those days.

>You know who got blasted out of sleep at 3 AM because my email was down? I don't know, but it sure as heck wasn't me.

Only people who were unfortunate enough to be working on the GMail team from UTC+7, perhaps UTC+6, instead of in Mountain View.

Luckly half our ops team is in a timezone 9hrs offset from mine, it is extremely rare for either team to have someone woken up in the middle of the night. Sleep is good.
