I think you could incentivize availability, and make everyone happy. What if you got the ability to bid ultra-long call (at home), but got paid a little less for each, or got less time off, than the guy who bids short-call? I'm not saying take something away from what we have now for the long-call guy, but I think you could weigh availability and pay/time off pretty easily, to design a system where everyone is bidding according to their commute (or lack thereof), and getting rewarded accordingly.
I like this a lot. My wife's chicken pot pie made me miss johnso's original query.
