This morning I was late to work cos of the snow, I informed those in my dept and was in a taxi. My friend at work was texting and calling me to make sure I was okay at like 9.10 (I start at 9) cos I hadn't replied to the office email she had sent me and she wanted to know where I was which is really nice of her to be concerned, but I am fine!
Yesterday I was out at works do and a friend had emailed my personal email, we had been chatting all morning and he knew where I was going and at what time...I can access my personal email on my phone but as I was on a works do, I wasn't sat on my phone all day/night as that is rude so I didn't reply...when I checked my phone I had like 8 texts, 3 emails, 4 missed calls and messages on FB from people making sure I was okay cos they hadn't heard from me for like an hour or something.
Concern is nice but it's a bit OTT.
The other day my friend phoned my OH cos she couldn't get hold of me...she had text and then tried to call in like a 15 min time scale and I hadn't answered. I was in the bath!
I feel like I need my phone strapped to me 24/7 or a PA to answer it on my behalf. Now I am back at work, with the commute, work load, getting up at 6.30 and getting home at 6.30 and then doing household chores, washing my hair, taking a bath, going to the supermarket, seeing to the pets etc and getting an early night I don't have the time to answer my phone/every email/every FB message and just cos I don't reply straight away doesn't mean I am dead!
And if worst came to the worst and I WAS in hospital, I would have text those who needed to know anyway!
I went to bed last night about 11.45 and woke up this morning to 2 emails, 3 texts and 3 missed calls (I had my phone on silent)
Sorry for the rant, I am just hormonal and today it has wound me up!
