ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- Today's 98.3 TRY Social Dilemma is about working and being on call. Here's the email. Get the latest, news, weather, sports and community events delivered right to your inbox! Hi Jaime and good morning. My name is Evan and I wonder if anyone listening to the show could call in and help me out with this dilemma I’m going through. So I was just given a promotion at work as a team supervisor. The job comes with many perks, one being they get me a new smart phone that’s just for work. I don’t have to take the phone but they will pay for it if I want one.

The reason being, all the other supervisors have told me that the boss thinks they HAVE to answer calls even if it's on a day off or the weekend. I’m a team player and love my job and I’m grateful for the promotion but I don’t want to feel obliga...

He’s been out of work for the last year.He frequently “borrows” money from elderly relatives.When I tried to put a stop to this, he told me that he completely understood why my husband divorced me, and the begging (successfully) continued.Now that my elderly relatives are no longer in the position to give him money, he is back to asking me.I generally refuse, but he still manages to get me to donate, claiming necessary medical bills.He has also asked me to be the go-between to transfer money from my father’s account to his because my father is no longer able to physically go to the bank. (My father is competent and agrees to give the money.)This bank transaction is an ...
