Stop using your work laptop or phone for personal stuff, because I know you are
I got a new job recently after being at my old place almost 15-years. I've decided I'm doing things differently this time. All my work stuff is on my work equipment, all my personal on my personal, and never the two shall meet. I don't have e-mail or slack on my phone. I don't have personal e-mail on my work computer.It's remarkable to me how much this has improved my life. It took some getting used to, but when I'm working I focus better on work, and when I'm not I unplug. It seems obvious yet somehow leaving work behind at the end of the day escaped me before.Also as someone who used to run an IT department, it's shocking the degree that some people fail to realize their work equipment is well works. Personal e-mail on your work laptop, I get it. Your entire collection of photography celebrating the human form in your folder of the company shared drive, why would anyone think that's a good idea?
