Reps, let others know when you are unavailable

As Reps who are doing many things, we sometimes need a break from our activities. To make it easy to communicate those breaks, you can quickly complete a form to update your profile and let your mentor know when you will be unavailable for a few weeks or more.

When you want to start your unavailability period, submit a break notification. You can navigate to the form from the Settings page when you are signed in on reps.mozilla.org.

Once you submit a break notification

  • Your mentor receives an email notification that you will be unavailable
  • Your profile is updated to show you are unavailable until the date you provided
  • The Dashboard page for your mentor and other Mozillians shows you as unavailable
  • You and your mentor will receive an email reminder the day before you specified you would be available again

At the end of your unavailability period, you will need to indicate that you are ready to resume your activities. The reminder email will prompt you to visit the Settings page to confirm you are ready to resume your Reps activities. If you need more time, no action is needed. Just return to the Settings page when you are ready and click ‘Resume your activities’.

If you find any issues or odd behavior while using this new functionality, file a bug and we’ll take a look at it.
