Why can't I reply to work messages after work?

Am I not a good employee if I don't come back from work?

First, to be honest, it is almost a nightmare for all social animals to receive work news frequently during non-working hours. Because once a message is received, it often means not the end, but the beginning. Even if you are getting ready for bed at the moment and receive temporary news about your work, you should stay awake and finish your work.

The reason why we have this trouble must be that we have a boss, a colleague and a client, who want to keep in touch with people all the time ... and you must be a reliable person with this trouble. After all, the standard of a good employee only says that "where there is an explanation, there is a response to everything", but there is no clear time limit for this response.

Therefore, with the development of science and technology, getting off work is becoming a false concept. Just like the jokes of talk show actors, technology has improved, and it is convenient for the boss to contact you. If you can't get through, you can use WeChat, qq and the glory of the king. ......

The labor law tells us that workers have the right to rest and vacation. During off-duty, employees should have a full rest. The employing unit shall respect the employees' right to rest, and shall not arbitrarily occupy employees' rest time.

In other words, of course, you can not return to work news after work, and you don't have to have a psychological burden, which has nothing to do with whether you are a good employee or not.

It's not whether you should return, but whether you dare to return.

Although you know that we have the right to rest according to law, this is a normal thing, but people often can't help themselves in Jianghu.

Many times, the news about work received during non-working hours is really not whether to reply, but not to reply.

Third, it is really annoying to ask others to "keep in touch" with work news during non-working hours, but it is not all a bad thing.

In some cases, being able to reply to work news quickly after working hours is an intangible advantage in the workplace, which is called reliability. Whenever the boss or customer needs it, you are always around, so when a new opportunity comes, you will definitely appear on the other party's list for the first time.

The essence of work is to exchange labor remuneration. From this perspective, replying to messages is the essence of keeping work. When you are not irreplaceable enough, the "time insurance alliance" is to open the difference between you and others, or "volume".

How to get back the freedom of work correctly?

1. If you want to lose your "freedom" after work, you must first establish a boundary!

Russian writer Bondarev once famously said, "The root of all human sufferings stems from the lack of a sense of boundary." So, don't be afraid of being "unsociable", and keep giving up your private time to finish your work.

There is only a difference between replying to work messages 0 times and countless times after work hours. If you really care about receiving work calls during any non-working hours, it's best to let everyone know your boundaries from the beginning, "I won't reply to work messages after work."

However, while expressing your work red line, you should also show your responsible attitude. Be sure to handle the things that should be handled well before leaving work, and dock the things that should be docked.

2. Rapid response should also be handled at different levels.

People are in the workplace, and it is unrealistic to not return to work after work. The first moment of receiving information can be viewed dialectically and handled flexibly:

Judging from the urgency of the incident, there are priorities. If it is urgent work on a special node or related to business connection, it is best to reply as soon as possible.

For example, if you receive "Are you there", "Are you busy" or "Have a small job", you don't have to pay attention to it. Most of them are jobs that are not urgent or anyone can find. After all, if you are really in a hurry, I will definitely call you as soon as possible. Even if it is not so urgent, but I need your cooperation, I will definitely write down the matters and indicate that I need a quick reply.

Although life after work is wonderful, some news about work after work can still be answered as much as possible.

You know, the world doesn't need you that much, and it doesn't need you that much.
