Mandatory OT
One ER I worked used an "on call" rotation list that meant if some one picked up the phone at your house you were considered "No call, no show." In the same place somebody could come up to you an hour before your shift ended and tell you that you had to stay for another 4 hours, even though that would give you a 16 shift that day, and don't even think about not showing up on time tomorrow!
We're never gonna solve the staffing problem as long as we have bosses who are on profit sharing. Every call-in is a buck into their 501.
