    LPT: you can schedule messages in advance. Right click, or hold, on send to program it (usually)

    I use it to:

    • Avoid messaging my coworkers late at night.

    • Look like I am working late even though I’m not.

    • Annoy my lazy coworkers. You know the ones who ask the same questions, you’ve answered 9 times already? Answer him but set it to delay for increasingly longer time (I’m up to 4 days now). Then you can move on with my life but not leave them 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.
