Communications Major

Looking forward to that July 4 holiday? Of course you are. But be honest: what are the chances you’re going to sneak a look at your work email at some point during the day, just in case? A new survey from mobile security firm Good Technology reveals some 68% of us check work email before 8 a.m., with half of us doing so before our heads leave the pillow. At the other end of the day, 69% of us can’t slip into slumber unless we’ve checked that old work email one last time. All that extra time online adds up to an extra 7 hours a week, or 365 hours a year.
