TL;DR “I’m alright Jack”
Comment on U.K. might follow Europe in fining employers who message staff after-hours

Back when I worked in a traditional role. It drove me nuts the needless things I’d be contacted about after hours

Glad to hear that you found a position where your work experience is enjoyable and compatible with your life style. Given your last sentence, I hope you can see how the legislation mentioned here could potentially help people who have not yet been so lucky to achieve that.

I think it’s desperately needed. To get to where I’m at now I had to endure a lot of shit. Jobs shouldn’t be your life.
