You can. It’s called “having boundaries.”
Some of you people act like it’s just so easy for everyone to do this if they want to and like this person is making the choice to not have time for their family. Not everyone’s work places are flexible or understanding and not everyone is in a position to just leave their job and find a new one or move if they’re unhappy with it. So just let them vent and be sympathetic that they aren’t as lucky as you
The thing is nothing will change if this person doesn’t speak up for themselves. And when nothing changes, go higher up the chain. If nothing happens then, it’s time to seek another job. This person is obviously desirable or they wouldn’t be working their tails off or hired in the first place so it’s possible to find another job. If spending time with your family is important to you, you need to speak up. If there is retribution due to speaking up, then this person is working on a terrible team. Bottom line.
Every damn day. Haven’t been able to do anything like this in probably a year.
