    What even is the point

    Scheduling correspondence generally falls into one of a couple categories:

    1. This message contains information you don’t want them to have until after an event. Raises, Layoffs, Reorgs
    2. It’s 2am and you don’t want to bother them at this hour. (more important for Slack)
    3. They’re not in our timezone and you want it to hit the box when they’re fresh to work on it. You don’t want them to start a sprawling project at 4:30 on a Friday.
    4. It’s the weekend and there’s no reason for them to worry about it until Monday.

      It’s the weekend and there’s no reason for them to worry about it until Monday.

      Imagine checking work email on the weekend. I feel sorry for people with jobs like that.

        I have a guy, he’s amazing but he just does that. I have to be very careful to not to send him anything outside of normal work hours because he will spin up and do it and that’s not what I want.
