I advised my friends million times do not call while I am at work

The simple solution that I like to do is simply to turn your phone off. Go back 10 years when people would have to be patient and wait till you get home to use your home phone to talk. Ahhhh, those were the days. It can be a good thing to not be contactable throughout the day, but what can you do.

You're supposed to be connectable so I don't know on what your boss is on but he doesn't seem to have the brain capacity that you have a social life next to your working life and he probably doesn't. You're by the way not going to tell me your boss never receives private calls either. So he should now better.

Hi Clori It is not hard to understand and you do right in shutting the call of He has to realize that you when you are work that is what you are paid for not to talk to him on the Phone

Yes that would be very annoying as well as possiably causing you to get in trouble. Keep your cell phone off or just dont take calls at all at work.

Just tell your friends the reason patiently and seriously! I think they will understand you.

Hahaha,maybe your friend really have something needs you. that situation sure is unaviodable.You can tell your friend :please wait me while.AND I think you and your friend will have a good relationship .It's only my opinion,I hope I didn't let you very upset.my friend...

tell your friend if he really cant take not to call you at work to call you during your breaktime aand or during lunchbreaks... not when the work is on going... or better yet not to receive thier call.

Easy solution is there for your problem. 1) If you care for your home calls and some others whose call you expect at any situation then get a SIM card of any company and activate it during your office hours . Only your close ones know that and not your friend. Again activate your old sim after the office hours and take it easy your friends and your headache. 2) Please switch off the mobile during your office hours to get out off all these troubling matters.

Hi Clorissa, I just don't know why he could not understand your request of not giving you a call during office hours. Good that you are not answering his call or if you have a secretary around instruct her to block his call once he make one. Your job is more important than his call not unless it is an emergency call that you really have to attend to but if it's petty and trivial forget it. He has all the time in the evening to call or even the weekends or your off days!

hi,clorissa123,It is very good topic. I usually set my mobile phone to mute duing my job,and call him back or give him back a short message in my leisure time.I know It is not allowed to give sb a call during job.I usually tell my friend about it.hehe. Good Luck

Why don't you turn your phone off while at work and turn it back on while break time. That's what I'm doing while in office. I think your friends won't be angry if you turn it off. You may tell them to leave a text or voice message if there's something important or emergency to tell.

thats good thing and you are vary intrested and cagin and concentrating in the work that you have started and its good for every aspect that which is started by you and iam very glad to post this respose to you and you type of people are rere in this type of funny world and continue aspect of the thing u mentioned and bye fro every thing

I won't call any of my friends at work time unless there is something important. If my friends do, I ask them to call me or I call them back after work. Though there are no rules @ the place I work, I still think it's totally implite for us to answer phone calls, not abt work, while working.

You are right,it is the working rule, we have to follow.You can ask your friends to send you message if they have urgent things. You have told them your company rules, i think your friends should understand.

Do you need your cell phone at work or do you use the company phone for business? It is simple. Ask your boss to keep your cell phone for you. When someone calls and it is an emergency, he will tell you "your child is in the hospital." If it is your friend who wants to ask for something trivial, if your boss is a grouch, a growl or two from him will scare off your friend.

You have to be tactful. You can say, "please stop calling me at work, or i will get fired." Period. Your true friends will understand.

I think you did the right thing just turning off the phone. You may have to just come out and ask your friend how they would feel if the call that they make gets you fired. I hope they stop calling you at work.

It was right of you to shut off your phone during work. Your friend should understand that what the rules are and leave it at that and why not call you while you are at work. Don't think that you have done anything wrong, because you have not and if your friend cannot understand that then they are no friend at all. You shouldn't have to lose your job, for talking on the phone at work when you're not allowed to and your friend is calling. Just leave it at that, and if your friend ask why, then just tell them that you have a job and you can't talk on the phone and you will be leaving your phone off from now on.

Yeah,you are right,tell them your thought and the coming result if he still do as his mind seriously.He will understand you obviously,if he cares.

Sometimes we cannot avoid to call received call even when at work. It is because emergency case happens. But if you really don't want to be disturb then simply set your cellphone ring tone to silent. So that, it won't get your attention while working.
