[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Today work is divided up by individual and we have email and Teams etc. You are point of contact. So you have to be available for your task. There is no number to call. [/quote]

That seems like an organizational problem.  Why did they change from a system that presumably worked fine?[/quote]

The whole world did. I had no email at work until 1996, I did not have a cell phone till 2002 and did not have a treo or blackberry till 2004 and did not have high speed internet at home till 2007.

I recall pre 2003 my home phone number was only way to get in touch with me. That was usually just for emergecies like building closed due to water leak, or blizzard with delayed opening

It also broke down due to remote and time zones. My last job was 100 percent remote. The weekend at work really only started 8 pm DC time Friday and ended 8pm DC time Sunday. My time zone did not mean much with co=workers in Australia, Japan, San Fran, London, Portugal etc.

We all were home and online all the time. We even had no auto sign off on my work mac book. I leave it on 24.7 so easy to check anytime.      [/quote]
