I suppose my experience has been different! Everyone at work is expected to respond to any e-mail in 15 minutes at most (1 hour on weekends), I have no kids and honestly haven't seen a single one in zoom calls (I hear this one person's dogs barking a lot if they're in the meeting, though), calls are airtight and password protected, and most of my contacts have pretty good internet


Wow, do you get paid for being on call during the weekends?


I get paid enough to not complain about it... part of the job description, I suppose


I’m sorry to say so, but I find these kind of conditions discriminating to those who have a family.


Lots of us have families. It's a trade-off, not discrimination. There are other jobs out there that don't require the same degree of availability. We get paid like doctors, so we're on call like doctors
