There is always your Right To Disconnect which you should bear in mind.

Europe (or bits of it) have already codified it into Law.

No individual should ever be on call 24/7 if they are not the Business Owner or are being paid obscene money to do that.

Ignore one call. See if they bitch. If they do, tell them how much it would take for you to sell your soul like that. Souls are expensive and I hear Satan offers competitive rates!

That's an interesting way to handle responses actually! My team is 24/7 with one team in America and one in UK so we hand over to each other, but obviously questions arise when the other team is online.. maybe I just need to establish some boundaries.

Hi Fishes,

This is in regards with my resignation. I have resigned on 22nd March (LWD : 22 June ) on medical grounds. Since then, my hr has asked for my prescriptions and medical certificates to give me an early release.

But yesterday, She is stating that my lwd is revised to 18th April with a clause that since my release is on medical grounds I can't join any other orgs before 22june. If joined, there will be problem in background verification.

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?

Anyone from Dropbox who can put me in touch with HR or suggest what I should do next?
