But then he would disappear and have no posts on USMB on the weekends. . . .My phone automatically goes to mute after 9pm all the way to 7am. Only a call from my immediate family can make my phone ring after hours.I was very late to the game getting a cellphone. I hate talking on telephones period. The only reason I did was related to work/one of my parents having a major health crisis. I wanted work to be able to reach me in emergencies and, more importantly, I wanted my family to be able to reach me in emergencies. Now that both my parents have died, I am seriously contemplating doing away with it. The problem is that work, despite me telling them not to, gave my number to people who give my number to people at the drop of a hate so it is pure inconvenience to me 95% of the time. When I am not at work, I do not want people calling me at 9:30-10:00 at night just because it suits their schedule. Screw them. I am not a fast food restaurant where people can pull up to the window 24/7 no matter how much they seem to think they matter.
If you can possibly turn it off on the weekends - From Friday dinner time to Monday Morning work time? That would be very beneficial to you, Ascelplias. You will feel more rested - refreshed - you'll be more relaxed - you need that time for yourself where there is no contact coming in and you know there won't be any contact coming in. Think about it.
