Work is that place you go to 5x9. Anything else isn't work, and work shouldn't have an expectation that you're available during that time. If work needs additional coverage, they need to hire additional staff. Period. Leads to: more jobs, more free time (and yes, less take-home pay for the type-As. If they want more, they can work 2 jobs). If work can't afford to hire additional, they have no business trying to operate beyond 5x9.
They're the masters of making a free (to customers) service viable. It's a golden opportunity...they have the bandwidth...they'd just need to create (or purchase) the content, then make it available for free in XML format, and for free (with small paid advertisements) in HTML format, easily accessible from the Google start page. Similar to what Zap2It (and possibly others) have done.
