Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

If that’s in the US, that’s illegal. There are strict laws around on call availability. That company hopefully now has an on call policy, including availability, on-call standby pay, and on-call pay.
I make my company pay for a work phone and when I’m off the clock, I shut it off and put it in a drawer. I never check on work outside my agreed hours. A younger, naive me would. But an informed older me isn’t a sucker and advocates for work reform while drawing clear boundaries between work and personal.
Fuck your company for taking advantage of you. Glad you’re out, but hope the others there fought for fixing those policies or else they’ll just have major attrition.
I've only had one place that gave me any kind of stipend to be on call, everywhere else just expects it as part of the job description with no added benefit.
