Life before cellphones: The after-work activities of young people in 2002
> The very idea that, once work hours were over, no one could get hold of you—via email, text, Slack, whatever—is completely alien to contemporary young people, who never let their cellphones leave their hands.If your work requires a phone or computer, they should be providing a dedicated device. Then, turn off your work devices when you are done with work for the day. I know I didn’t invent this solution just now. Who are these people carrying around their work phone when they are not working or on call? If you are working at a place where this is the norm (I did, briefly) leave. It’s not worth it.
