Working as a PA, or touring with a band as tour manager 24/7 is often the case and sometimes a stipulated requirement in the contract. If you are a rigger on the same tour, you are probably giving most of your time to the tour, not being able to go away and do something else, but question of overtime I'm sure would only come up if there was a situation where you had to [U]work[/U] for an excessive amount of hours. I'm sure that LG can afford to pay her PA more than $75K a year, and maybe she should given the demands she puts on her staff, but I'm equally sure that her PA at no time was given the impression that being LG's PA would be a 9-to-5 deal.
