why would you even access work email outside of work hours?
Some people in my office have their work email synced to their phones. They also take home their laptops most weekends to "catch up", "don't fall behind", or "just in case any emergencies".
They are not in leadership positions and we operate Monday thru Friday. Why???
I do this just so I can be aware of what's going on because it makes less work for me during work hours. It have silent notifications on for that app, so it doesn't interrupt what I'm doing. I pretty much only read the subject line unless it pertains to me personally. It really only takes a few seconds out of my day, but it makes it so I don't need to start earlier and I can review my emails before my scrum starts at 9 AM. I start working at like 8:50 AM to get logged into my VPN and everything, while some of my coworkers start at 8 AM to review all their emails before scrum.
