Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

This past leave break, I deliberately didn't check emails, answer text messages or phone calls (voice mail also disabled on network). It was awesome. Didn't worry about anything. They should respect the fact you're on leave, but there is always the idea they think you won't mind if they ask a quick question.
"Sorry to bother you while you're on leave but......"

Nah. Go silent.

Normally I do go silent, I made the fatal mistake this year of work not providing a work number, so have had people calling my personal number (sometimes a gamble). Also has sucked being in a fledgling managerial position and having a huge number of "issues" that have cropped up (starting a new service so haven't quite got the infrastructure in place yet in terms of phones etc).
