@mrysav I hate that too. I had a very anxious dev who was panicking after some unplanned downtime he caused. Of course, it was Friday, and of course the work stretched on until 8 PM while I was on call. I finally told him "if this is truly an emergency, put in an emergency ticket so I can respond to it."
After checking with his boss, all of the sudden, it could wait until Monday.
I've noticed any time I've outright challenged "urgency," it tends to disappear. Because, post covid, people think everyone is available at all hours of the day and night now.
