<p>Well as the OP I must say this has generated lots of discussion!</p>
<p>In my previous work lives I would have expected everyone to be checking their emails at all times, but thankfully I have been liberated from that expectation. My current job doesn’t even give us real access to the network to check emails outside of the office. It was tough at first to get used to, but now I can blissfully enjoy evenings and weekends without thinking of work!</p>
<p>Frankly, it would be a good thing if more people had that luxury. It really is a sad statement about our society that we feel the need to be connected to work 24x7.</p>
