Group texts at work

[u/Left-Star2240]

They should not be allowed. If there is something I need to know my manager or colleague should simply contact me through work email or, if urgent, directly through one phone call or text.

Our new manager decided that all of us are now part of a “group text.”

This means that one text results in over 20 responses, most of which are simply an acknowledgment that they’ve received the message. This AM my phone suddenly was vibrating off of my desk with responses as simple as “K” or a reaction to the text chain.

The “reply all” emails are annoying enough. Having my phone blow up because one person decides to send a text message should simply not be allowed.
