I’m lucky enough to have a job where once I’m clocked out, nothing is my responsibility until I clock back in. But it depends on the message I get if I do get one, like I’ll reply to someone asking if I can cover a shift for them

If it’s work related, no. If it’s a coworker I’m friends with outside of work and it’s “personal”, usually.

That would be so nice. I use a laptop at work but it plugs into dual monitors, and security is insane at my job which means we have to use a VPN any time we’re doing anything work related. Since the company is too cheap to pay for a VPN for everyone, most of us don’t take work home 🙏🏼
