An Indian support engineer, Vinit Patil, shared on Reddit that he missed a 1:30 am call from a senior colleague informing him to report to work at 6 am, despite his shift starting at 7:30 am.
The unexpected schedule change came after Patil had finished work at 9 pm the previous night. Reddit users criticized the unprofessional behavior, with some advising him to apologize for missing the call, while others warned against setting a precedent of always being available.
This incident highlights the increasing pressure on employees to be constantly accessible, blurring the lines between work and personal life.
