There are always some people who'd sit to work on holidays and send random work related text on all official groups 🙄 Just why?
Early in my career I used to feel the same when my boss did it. On one candid dinner talk I asked him why does he ping on groups and DMs on work related stuff on holidays. His answer was simple - "I might forget the smaller things later in case I don't post it immediately, and hence I make it a point to post it as and when possible in case something strikes my mind" (he used to expect people to acknowledge and respond too, which was definitely a toxic trait, IMO).
Today, while I lead a team, there are many instances where I post something that comes to my mind whenever possible (from late nights to weekends/holidays). I don't expect my team to respond, and have informed my team too that I don't expect them to, unless it's an emergency task to be done. I can quite relate to my ex-boss but I'm trying to avoid the mistakes he did.
Don’t respond to the mails.
As to why some people do it - to let the world know what a toxic workaholic they are.
I used to respond to such messages, not anymore. Definitely not healthy.
Given they are not responding to text messages and also they are working remotely
Dear Recuriters,
