I have a hard time leaving work at the office since my email is on my phone and my computer. Blergh. I wish I could turn it off but I just can't!
Can you leave work at the office (no matter if that office is at home or out of the house somewhere)?
-
Yep. When I was working, I left work at the office and didn't think about it!
-
Never, thanks to a little device called the Blackberry!
-
I try to be good about it, but with Outlook straight to my phone, it's a lost cause. In fact, I'm doing a national presentation this weekend so I'll be working on it with Mr. Jacks tonight. I feel like my work NEVER ends!
-
I try not to, but def habit of checking email on Sun nights or the day before I have to go back after a vacation...
-
Currently, once I leave the office for the day, I leave it there unless I'm expecting something important. If I go on vacation, I try to, but will occasionally check emails to stay on top of things.

Work gave me an iphone a couple years ago so "I'm always connected in case of an emergency." I have made it very clear that unless I'm on call I will not be responding to emails that aren't emergencies during my home time. Nothing I do is really all that pressing, so this doesn't happen often.
-
I struggle with leaving work at the office. It is a perpetual work in progress for me.
-
Nope! With my emails popping up on my phone it's nearly impossible not to check it when I see the notifications.
-
My work truly never ends. Sometimes I will put Charlie down on his toddler bed, and while he's still drifting off... I will be postathoning under the covers next to him.
-
I have email on my phone and I'll sometimes check it during the evenings/weekends, but I RARELY act on anything I see until I get to work the next day. I used to work in public accounting and I felt like I could never get away from work, so now I keep my distance.
-
I work from home, so there's not a big work/home separation. They definitely blur together. That's not a problem for me though, because I LOVE my job and would be doing the same things in my spare time anyway.
-
Yup, an advantage of working as a hygienist. Once I'm done for the day, I'm done!
-
When I was working, I was always working...if that makes sense. I've taken calls while on vacation in France, worked weekends, late nights, you name it.
I had remote access, so I could access my full desktop from anywhere I had internet access. I never accessed emails on my personal phone, though.
