Hubby is 7 x 24 with his job. I love traveling out of the country because he can't take his work phone or look at work email because if ITAR issues. He's texted while walking though Disney, emailed and taken phone calls on just about every trip we've taken for the last 20 years, and received call on his personal cell from his boss (gave the number to him just in case) while we were in St. John asking him if he was willing to take a voluntary layoff package. Nothing says "enjoy your vacation" like wondering if you'll have a job when you get back! I say all that because at least when you DO go you most likely won't be bothered.
That stinks!
I was on call 24 /7 for 31 years. I was maintenance for 12 years then plant Manager for the final 18 years at roofing manufacture. Needless to say April to October was our busiest time. So no matter where we were I always received phone calls.
As soon as I was able to retire I did at age 57. Last year was first year off still received a few calls to help out. But at least I could do it at my leisure.
Man I do not miss it at all.
