Question about late night/early morning call to provider etiquette

I work nights and often don't get out of work until 3, 4, even 5 in the morning. Is it rude to call providers at these hours?

I set up alot of sessions at this time of morning! I always set it up ahead as in the day before. Worst case I call day before an ask " hey look I will be ready sometime between 1 an 3 is it ok if I get screened today an call when I am a hour away?" now when I have to do this I ALWAYS leave a tip ! Because in my eyes she is goin above an beyond the call of duty! Just my .02

If they advertise 24/7 I don't think it's wrong.

I would think if the lady doesn't advertise as 24/7 that it would be rude to call at those hours. But honestly, only time I am up at those hours is if I am going hunting.

You can call it hunting if you want

I'm always available to you baby! Had a great time the last time
This week you can get me 24-7!!!
But then YOU can always have me 24-7
I likey what you got =)

I have a few clients that work shift work and get off or even go in at that time. They will usually set the appointment up either the day before or earlier that night. It helps to know in advance so I can get up early enough to get ready for them. I turn my phone on silent at night when I go to bed (the damn thing rings all night long!!). I tell clients to call... If I'm up Ill answer, if not, I'm sleeping. But I believe the key here is to call ahead of time at a reasonable hour.

PS... Hello everyone from Boston... It's cold as all get up here!!!!! Remember the show Cheers? Going to eat there for lunch!!!!

Lil Red, you in my home town? HOt avatar, by the way! And you are so right, it is freezin' here. Brrr...

I agree with Stick, its ok to call if she advertises 24-7. If not, then I think you should wait until a reasonable hour. I get calls at all hours, and I keep my phone turned off when I'm in bed. The funny part is when someone calls, I don't answer b/c I'm asleep, and they have the nerve to call 4-5 MORE times in a row. I wake up and see 5 missed calls from the same number at 3 am! LOL. If I was up, I was obviously busy. If not, you don't want to talk to sleepy Nina anyway!

If you're old friends and have discussed it before, then I say call when you like.
