What time did you get the call?
Here I am waiting for my first call and I was wondering what time of day or night do you guys get calls?
I was thinking about it and for some reason I had in my head that it would be during work hours, then realized that might not be true.

I got the call while I was at work - they called my cell phone and I took the call. My FD has been with us for 14 months and we are on the road to adoption!!! I would guess it would be anytime of the day. The other calls I got were during the day as well for respite

I did a weekend respit for my FDs, then got a call about a month later during the day for placement.
I did, however, receive a call at midnight for a 13 yr old girl about 2 weeks ago, but had to decline because I didn't have room. |

I have only got two calls for long term placements and they were both during the day. I thought we'd get calls at weird hours, especially when we got our specialized license a few months ago...nope.

I got the call at 7:30 am on Monday morning. When that phone rang, I knew what it was before I could see the caller ID. My agency knows they can call 24/7.

So far, I've only gotten calls during working hours-usually late afternoon. I haven't had any evening or weekend calls.

We get called mostly during the day... we were called last month at 4 a.m. We got up and started getting everything we needed for the pending arrival of a teeny baby girl. Then, they called at 6 a.m. to say she wasn't coming!
