tedspal-
It is VERY rare that they will contact you on short call and say "Get here as fast as you can". It can happen occasionally but normally you will have a few hours notice. If you are within 2-3 hours drive from NYC then you are fine. Typical short call scenario would be an early morning phone call saying "We have a trip for you this afternoon". Or a midnight call saying "Someone just called in sick. We have a trip for you that signs in at 6AM tomorrow".
