Nope. Dont send me messages about work to my phone. I have email and a ticketing system for that. I’ll see to it when I’m at work.
Comment on U.K. might follow Europe in fining employers who message staff after-hours

I guess nobody has a problem with being messaged to after hours, just with the expectation to reply after hours. Remain and chat are asynchronous communication media, in Stark contrast to phone or video call.

Yeah, why would my boss even have my phone number? There are corpo comm systems for corpo business.
In some companies I’ve worked at, it was even illegal to text each other outside said corpo systems. It made a lot of things clean and easy.

In my workplace we mostly communicate through mail and Teams, and I block notifications out of work hours.
It works wonders in terms of not thinking about work outside of work.

I do. Your own time is your own time. I don’t want to be going to work the next day to be asked first thing what I’m doing about all the emails I was sent last night. Thinking about or reading about work is still work.

My company (24/7 production plant) has a culture of having Do Not Disturb on after hours and email/Teams really being us for “you’ll see this tomorrow”. It’s great! Takes some unlearning on new people coming in, with that and fully unplugging for PTO

Yeah same here, especially because I live in a very different time zone (Korea) than most of my coworkers (Europe).
