<prompt> Human: My job is going to post a new position within the next month. The position requires 1 week of on call work per month as well as working some holidays. I am already doing this work on a finite basis with contract ending in May and then Im supposed to revert back to my normal M-F 9-5 job.I dont yet know how much this position will pay, but it will be more than I earn now. My work will be screwed if my coworkers and I dont take the posted on call positions, but at the same time, leveraging for more pay would be difficult because it was a huge bureaucratic mess figuring out how to create the job position in the first place govt job. I dont mind the on call gig but I dont appreciate not being able to do things like Christmas or New Years Eve. How do you calculate whether its worth it?update comment: wow, a lot more responses than i thought. Will also update later when the job is posted.  <response>: This is a completely personal decision. Everyone values there time differently. Unforturnately we wont be able to give you great answers on this. See what the raise would be and then go from there. You have to calculate how valuable you think your time is, and we cant help you with that.
