I wonder whether she meant her statement the way you heard it. It could be you’d only get a call in the case of an emergency, if at all.
I’m a managing attorney working in-house in a large corporation. I manage another attorney and two paralegals currently, and expect my team to grow in the next two years.
I’m feeling a little panicked about this, in part because I’m overwhelmed right now. I have time off planned in two weeks, during which the rest of my team will be available. I have a good plan for coverage, and I really, really need to be able to disconnect for this vacation.
No, it is not a ridiculous pipe dream. In the vast, vast majority of jobs, including senior ones, it’s unreasonable to expect someone will becircumstances where you do need to be available. For example, if you wanted to take a week off during a key time for a project you were involved with, it might only be possible if you agree to be reachable should an emergency come up.
One caveat to all this: In particularly senior and/or key jobs, you still might get contacted on occasion in emergencies, but that should be reserved for true emergencies, not, “Oh, it would be more convenient if we could ask Jane rather than finding another solution,” and even in a true emergency, people generally understand that they may or may not be able to reach you while you’re away. There’s no expectation that you’ll ensure you’re always reachable and available.
