I did this recently. I also turned off all notifications on my phone that make sound/vibrate, except phone calls and SMS (and I rarely get a call or text).
Now I don't get interrupted as often and life is much less stressful
- thejdude 12y agoAnd you never know about critical issues coming in. I like to be notified, but if I'm reeeeally busy I don't go look at the emails. When I do, it's mostly notifications of something (delete immediately), simple requests (answer in 30 secs - 2 minutes) or stuff to get back to later (flag and/or put on my TODO list to schedule for later). It doesn't really interrupt my work, as my actual work is still what and when I schedule it. Since most tasks have cleary communicated priorities anyway, this works nicely.
