    LPT: you can schedule messages in advance.

    Right click on send usually to program it

    I use it to avoid messaging my coworkers late at night but also to simultaneously look like I AM working late even though I’m not.

    I also use for my lazy coworkers. Asked the same questions, I’ve answered 9 times already? Answer him but set it to delay for increasingly longer time (I’m up to 4 days now). Then I can move on with my life not leaving him hanging forever.

      Avoid messaging my coworkers late at night.

      I generally don’t do that. Once I’m off work, the laptop is shut and work profile on my phone is turned off. The second I step out of the building, I’m no longer having work-related conversations.

      That’s not just personal work-life ethic, it’s the explicit policy my boss laid out. He just doesn’t stick to it himself.
