BuddieInDundee Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Being contacted from work when I've left, or on my days off. If it's an emergency or something I need to know then fair enough, but increasingly I'm getting phoned or texted about things that are either not very important or could wait until I'm next in.Becoming very tempted to ignore any contact from work altogether, but then if I ignore a call or a text I find myself thinking about it until I finally give in and reply. I like and care about my job, but when I leave the place I want to forget about it and focus on my family or friends or football or anything I fancy. Maybe I should get a separate work phone and just turn it off when I'm not actually in the place. Leave them my landline for absolute emergencies but nothing else. I think texting is the problem, far too easy to just send a text. Christ this was endemic in my last job, was terrified to go into facebook messenger or whatsapp at points, within 10 minutes of being active usually had some absolute roaster asking a pointless question or making a complaint about another manager/member of staff.Get a work phone (got one from Tesco for about 15 quid) and remove all people from work on the apps I mentioned above if you have them, worked for me anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I'll get the odd person texting me asking about certain jobs are running on my machine and general questions about the job if it's new to them, its very rare that it happens though and I'm always happy to help as there's been one or two occasions I've been in a similar predicament and boys have helped me out with a quick text. However if this was becoming a daily occurrence and my spare time getting taken up they would be told to gtf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone in my line of work knows you dont hassle anyone at home unless it is absolutely unavoidable and that has never happened to me yet. If it did begin to happen, culprits would be berated to the point they would never dream of doing it again. Not saying that to try and sound the big man either, I am paid nowhere near enough to allow work past my door. Likely never will be. Big round of applause for this chap. At work they say don't bring yer personal problems with you. It works both ways fuckers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I deliberately stay close enough to my work that I can go home at lunchtime (and things like dropping the kids at school on the way in, etc), and I'm glad I do. It's a really bad place for being in the canteen, and someone turns up and says "I know you're on your lunch, but......" It's amazing how, if you're away home for lunch, whatever needs asked about can keep until you come back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philpy Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I hate it when deliveries come when you are wanting your break also, b*****ds. I used to be in that mindset as well, but at the end of the day the delivery folk are only doing their jobs, if they have a route planned out, they can't help what time they arrive at Places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
