I wonder if there's a name for the intentional delay in replying to a work email during your time off? While I do keep up during the week reading emails, I don't want them to KNOW I'm doing it since it's my time off. :)

What's time off?

Kristin, that's a good question! If I'm not working the full time job, I'm helping the missus with her business (technically our business but I don't get paid yet) or some schoolwork. Technology sure helps us keep up with things but perhaps too well.

I'M ON VACATION. MAKE THIS BILLABLE AND I'LL REPLY.

My last manager thought I was crazy answering his emails on my off time, in the middle of the night, which was work time for him (company is located in AU). Crazy, but he appreciated the quick responses to questions, which meant he wouldn't have to wait to reply back to me again, if it was necessary. If I had only answered his emails during my working hours, what was a quick email conversation in almost real-time, would have been dragged out for days, since neither of us worked the same hours.
