I’m on a team of workaholics. Currently based in central time zone and working for a West Coast client so my hours can be weird. Our team is spread across the country but I get pings at 6:30 am and people asking to call me at 8:30 pm. I’ve tried really hard to set boundaries and block time for myself but it’s constantly getting ignored and there’s no respect for personal boundaries. I barely even get outside nowadays but I don’t know what to do anymore.

How often does your HR communicate to you regarding the interns in your team and what do they usually talk about?

Let me ask, at what point, when communication isn’t being returned, do you just go ahead and do the thing you’re inquiring/asking?

I’m fed up with communicating like a mad man to have nothing returned and then painted like a bad person/employee for not having work done.
