It can be while you are having lunch or when you are off work .....

So, how would you feel? I feel annoyed by this. Is it the same for you guys?
 
In the 13 1/2 years I've been at my present job, I think I've been called twice on my day off (and I answered the phone both times). I rarely ever hear from them when I'm not at work. So, there's probably not a very high chance that'll happen.

That's so cool!
I have received so many such calls that I am kinda fed up with this. I really wish there wouldn't be so much dependency on one resource in the near future
 
I'm hardly bothered, so I don't mind, unless I'm in a really bad mood and might mutter to screw off :P
 
Since I'm working from home, if it's during my lunch break, not at all a problem really. If I can, I'll respond or talk to them. After work, no way. Won't respond, won't even look at it.
 
I feel like talking to people IS my leisure time. haha

I enjoy others' company so I don't mind when I'm "interrupted" I appreciate it when people reach out to me.
 
I'm a housewife & I tend to work off & on throughout the day doing chores, cleaning, tending to fur-babies, etc. I'm also an introvert so I can get a bit irked when people disrupt my routine.
 
I'm usually cordial if people contact me during leisure time, unless I've made it abundantly clear that I need the time to de-stress, then I get annoyed when people contact me. Otherwise, go for it!

See......when I go home, I don't like being contacted. Once I clock out and I'm on my own time, I don't like to think about work. I'm kind of an introvert to begin with.

Yeah, definitely. For me, it's more of an "I'm not getting paid to look at this after work" so that's why I don't touch anything work-related after 5pm.

That's exactly it. The company stops paying me once I clock out so I don't look at anything work related once I'm off the clock. I don't even like thinking about work much less doing work when I'm off the clock.

fur-babies? That's still a thing.

And I also hate my routine disturbed.
For those of us who have pets who we view as our kids, yep, it's a thing lol But we don't go overboard. We say they are our kids but we also know they are dogs & cats first & foremost. We respect their species. Irks me when people use an animal as a human child.
