Got a case of Sunday Scaries? I feel your pain. One of the most insidious ways employers rob us of our joy is by encroaching on our weekend time. You can’t stop an annoying manager from sending you a 6 am email on Sunday (an old boss of mine did that FREQUENTLY), but you CAN establish the boundary that you won’t open that sucker until 9 am Monday. The sooner you establish boundaries with your job, the better your chance of people respecting them. So what does that look like realistically? If a manager probes why you don’t respond to their emails off hours, you can say: It’s important to me to have a clear separation between my work and home life — so I don’t receive notifications on my personal devices. Again, it’s crucial to establish these boundaries early so your colleagues don’t accuse you of acting brand new. #sundayscaries #workboundaries #workplacesolutions #boundarysettings #womenownedbusiness #nomoresundayscaries
