Ask HN: My boss ask I take my emails while on vacation
Hi HN !
I recently took on a managerial role / project manager (I manage 2 programmers) at my work. Now that the summer holidays are approaching, my boss asks me, that during my holidays, I take my emails or that I be available to be called (~ 3h week).
He tells me that this is normal and that it comes with the role of manager.
On your side what is the vacancy policy in your company when you are managers ? Have you any advice on how to handle this ?
For the context it is a small business of 6 people.
