If the company you work for doesn't take your time seriously, it's time to look else where. I did what you're doing for a couple of years at a company that just didn't have the leadership it took to get things fixed. I was miserable every day. Partly because on-call sucked but more importantly because I was working on a project that felt like I was shoveling quicksand. Your time, your energy, and your self-esteem are worth too much to be shoveling quicksand for people who don't understand how to do things the right way.

I'm now at a company that takes these things seriously and I'm learning a ton of good habits and I feel really proud of the work that I'm doing.
