Maybe dude works from home.
I gotta check my phone pretty Sharp during working times, even if I’m not working, in case I’m needed

Not for me.
I get paid for 8 hours per week, at a rate thats roughly equivalent to the national average wage, to be available for eight hours on three different days.
I almost never actually do eight hours of actual work, so I feel like I’m okay with this deal. I turn off the phone evenings and weekends, I’m not the only one who can help with stuff most of the time.
I do get that a lot of stuff about being on call is abusive and exploitive, but most of the world is not the US.

Watching TV with your wife while working from home seems … ok fair point.

Especially when you’re “on call”
