@svk whats a job you can turn off??

I’ll be on “vacation” in a deer blind and get phone calls from work. Or be at the beach with the wife and kids.

One time, I pulled the car over and got out because I didn’t want the family to hear my vocabulary

The worst, I was pulling into the cemetery to bury my grandmother, boss calls with “where are you, I have Mr XYZ in my office and he is upset”

I came uncorked. Lost my mind!!! The day prior he and I drove his truck towing my trailer showing him the trailer brakes work just fine and it’s not his truck but his trailer. He went home, tied his broken trailer again and then came back convinced it’s his truck.

I must have dropped the F bomb 20 times all F him, that mother F

Whole time boss had me on speaker. Never had to deal with Mr XYZ again. Boss asked him if he and I really took that drive together then excused him from the dealership then apologized for forgetting why I took the day off. I hung up and the. Apologized to my wife and kids for daddy talking like that.

I wish, WISH I could turn it off for a week….

If you can do it without losing your job ignore the calls. If I feel like answering a call I will, if not go pound sand. I'll call back when I feel it. Being out in the sticks helps, I can always say the call didn't go through. Until you pay my phone bill and pay me for all the time I spend on your phone call you can "I have a potty mouth". My time is exactly that, my time. I'll gladly answer phone calls from coworkers but the "bosses" hell naw. My immediate boss and several other local managers are plagued by stupid, pointless cellphone calls from a stupid, pointless manager night and day, no way in hell will I sign up for that.
