To answer the question, I think a day is acceptable. I have a coworker that if I don't respond back to his texts within a few minutes, he gets all pissy....

So each person has their own threshold, apparently.
God I completely agree. I wish we had a national leave-your-phone-at-home day so that no would be worried about texting or missing a call or whatever. How gloriously FREEING. I despise having anyone get annoyed at me because I didn't text them or respond to their call quickly enough. Actually I'd like one of those days a week please.
