In the technologically bound environment today, access to multiple functions at one time is possible. With cell phones, beepers, laptops and other office gizmos, a manager can take care of more than one area of work.

With cell phones ringing all night long and messages popping on the computer screen all day, it is difficult to stay away from workplace, even on holidays.
