They can email as long as they don't expect it done. I assume the expectation is that you work on those when you get back. You are on vacation, they are not - don't tell me you want them to not email you just because you are?

@p2 - it can be normal. Really just depends on the person or current workload. But there are some vacations that are better off work free :) you'll learn how to at some point.

Because they are a jerk.

Because they know you are checking. don't look at emails until you come back

I really thought checking emails even when away was normal.. I just get so curious and they're right there...on my phone..taunting me😳

If buy the partners you work with regularly a holiday gift, how much do you spend? Usually I get baked goods or food items which you can’t tell the actual amount spent on. This year, though, I’d like to support local restaurants by encouraging people to order takeout—hence, giving gift cards.

How much is appropriate for a restaurant gift card from an associate to a partner?

Working in manufacturing & was told just last week that we’ll be forced to use 5 days of our PTO or go unpaid for a holiday shutdown. It takes 5 months to accrue that much PTO and it’s 1/3 of our PTO for the year. I know they “can” do this, but it feels like a punch in the face. I don’t have enough PTO to cover & now can’t see my family for thanksgiving as planned (out of state). HR was rude, unprofessional when I spoke with them. Any advice or condolence on this situation would be helpful

Curious do you guys celebrate Christmas, other holidays? And not looking for religious bashing. Just curious for eg. I am big on Christmas/ holiday spirit. I get a tree, lighting, gifts, sweaters. But similarly I have family who get very mad at wishing Merry Christmas. I am curious where you guy’s heads are at. Any cultural differences between eg black vs Arab vs south Asian Muslims etc.
