Our boss was freaking out over people sometimes doing some private calls during work hours and at a certain point absolutely forbade it. So yeah, people would just end the call at 17:00 sharp and switch off the work phone. It took one week before that rule was rescinded.

And that's ridiculous on general because you know who also does regular work hours? Everyone else!

That means if you need a call with your doctor, bank, whatever, it's likely gonna be during the workday
