Someone I don’t report to regularly contacts me outside of work hours and expects a quick response. What should I do?

A: If the person is contacting you for something that is not an emergency, reinforce your own boundaries by responding during your regular work hours. If the individual continues to contact you outside of work hours, speak with your supervisor about expectations and for assistance managing the situation.
