I liked that reflection. I’m lucky enough that my manager is very intentional in actively avoiding and mitigating any possible work related anything during the weekends.
When I get a call (as opposed to a slack message) it’s only because something is REALLY on fire.
This really allows me to disconnect completely from work with the assurance that in an extreme situation I could still be reached.
It’s also important to clarify what is considered important because honestly I get a call over the weekend to implement so “quick feature”, that would be a clear signal that it might be time to part ways with such company culture.
All I’m saying is, it starts with the individual marking the boundaries and then either talking the the manager or finding a place that respects those boundaries.
(I’m aware of some violations of boundaries from bosses that if they’d happen to me I’d likely seek for a restraining order!)
