The best part of the working day is when you sign off and go home; I don't care how much you love your job… there are no exceptions here.
Once you've put in your 8, or 9, (or even 10) hours, you're finally free to return to your humble abode, decompress… and start doing personal chores and obligations. Thanks to the modern workday, there's very little time to get all the things done that you'd like to at home; I'm sure each of us has several projects that we've been putting off due to constraints of time and energy. I, for one, still have to get that veggie garden set up from earlier this year.
Thanks to the boon of technological advances, our ability to remain in contact with our working lives while at home has increased dramatically — while the separation between the two has eroded into near-nothingness.
Well, in a declaration posted to a staff break room, this boss decided to do away with that separation entirely, declaring that all staff were (effectively) on call at all times. Images of the poster went viral today when posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, making this one of the highest trending images on the internet.
Commenters on r/antiwork were, of course, furious at the proposition of the alleged image, and the post sparked all kinds of debate and conversation around the problems with these types of workplace intrusions on private life.
Speculation seems to be that this image originated from an emergency department staff area — in my searching, I've been unable to find anything to back up this claim or the origins of the image. Although, based on accounts from people who work in these fields, it wouldn't be out of the question, as these sectors have suffered significantly with staffing thanks to recent global events.
