Just seen this article. Maybe Im old fashioned but why read and answer your emails on the way to work , its your own fault. It should not be classed as work time......

I agree. It is illegal in France for employers to contact their employees out of work hours. Should be in the rest of Europe too.

Smart phones are becoming a pain. I hate getting emails from them because people use them like they would a text message. At least a proper email is generally compossed in a coherant manner.

Last week I had 13 smart phone 'emails' from a customer over a 8 polo shirt order. All one line messages, that could have been dealt with in two emails. Then, after all sizes and quoting had been done, the 14th email asked for a change of artwork.

Maybe they should start charging for emails.
