I know what I'd be telling your Boss Kylarama and it would be Merry Christmas.  :angel: >:D

Foo

The big boss (CEO) is based in QLD (I'm in Vic) so interaction with him in minimal.  My GM  (my 'real' boss) I enjoy working for, so the good out weighs the bad.

I did respond to that email informing them that where I holiday there is not reception.  I even offered to divert my phone to the CEO's, just in case ;D

Still get questioned every so often if I saw the email when asked is I saw that email sent last night... nope, sorry, bad reception where I live thanks to Optus 8).

Then at Christmas time the CEO send a mass email to all our clients informing them that even though we are shut for 3 weeks, if they have any questions or problems not to hesitate to contact the project manager, as they are available 24/7 during the holidays... What the!  Thank god where we holiday there in no Optus coverage ;D  Sorry boss, that'll teach you for being a tight wad with the phone system.

O aren't that bad. Ill organise for your coverage to be fixed. Where are you :))

Sure do, but the phone also doubles as a private phone.  One of the perks!
I run a few jobs that go through weekends and sometimes nights, so I take calls from foreman and subbies time to time.  They only call when it's important!
My point was more about email at your fingertips being a distraction.  That's why I turn the data off and when I'm out of range the phone is off.
