There are two major things that can totally destroy my work plans…

Work calls after you’ve already put in a 10-hour day can be annoying AND change your plans quickly and dramatically. It also doesn’t help when your number is the one that gets butt-dialed at all hours. Seriously… 2 calls on Saturday morning around 4:30 AM ET and another on Sunday morning before 6:00 AM ET.
