I've never been keen on wait gainer, why not just take a conventional whey protein? You might wanna get some more EFA's such as flax or olive oil, and some nuts, also natty PB.

yes. you need a good balance of fats in your diet. flax, nuts and olive oil are good examples.

What I do with flax is take it with my protien shake. I myself take 2 table spoons 2 times daily and eat nuts for my other pro/fat meals, but everyone uses different amounts. Take it especially before bed. I don't mix it in with my shake though that would be gross. I just down it and chase it with my shake.

I mix olive oil in my shakes before bed. Not to shabby. I don't mind mixing it up with the shakes. I'll throw oats in it if i need a quick pro/carb meal.

You said you work all day on the go, does this mean that you cannot eat every 2-3 hours if you have prepared food with you? Or are you able to take time out to eat? Couple questions I have is do you know around what BF% you are? How sensitive are you to carbs? Are those sweet potatoes or regular? is that brown rice or white? What is your metabolism like? you say you are an ectomorph so Im assuming you are pretty lean and it's hard for you to gain weight... what do you eat on a normal daily basis. I have no problem mapping out a diet for you but it's kind of tough with not knowing any real specifics.
