is this some sort of american thing? when I am not working I am not available for my work, easy as that.

It's the main reason most people are so tired all of the time compared to our parents, back then when your shift was over, so was work for the day, so you only had to go back to worrying tomorrow... nowadays we can never really turn off or disconnect from it...

>>105672126 (OP)
Yeah so you set yourself as offline, duh

i got out of a "planning meeting" the other day and this actually came up. their solution to "YOUNG JUNUIORS ARENT READING ROUTINE ORDERS REEEE" was "let's switch to slack and force everyone to install it"

ironically we already have a giant teams/sharepoint/O365 license and a genuine internet version specifically worked out for WFH that's separate from the Designated™ intranet

We just use Teams. What are you talking about

Based.
I never set my own photo as avatar at work. I never take part in their social media stuff. I never sign agreement to take photos of me for promotional material or online listings. On a group photo for internal presentations I am in a horse mask.

this, aside from Slack, i absolutely refuse to use anything else.
It's great, nobody bothers me, meanwhile my restless collegues have to monitor WeChat all night to communicate with our Chinese lab, kek.

im forced to use Slack and i hate it.
simply put, it feels unprofessional to use a social media app i a professional setting.
especially the "networking" channels and whatnot where they socialize and have normie discussions about current events, and I never ever get to say what I really think or engage with my type of humor, so I never ever participate in those channels at all, it feels like a minefield not a comfortable relaxing social atmosphere
also I hate emoticons and whoever invented them

>>105679548
Slack is not a social media. It's a communicator.

>>105679548
Just ignore anything on Slack that isn't work related.

>>105672126 (OP)
Sounds like a you problem.
Unless it's part of your job your company laptop should be the only access to company communications.

>>105679548
It's a chat client, not a social media app.
I just mute all channels that aren't relevant to my job.
