Supervision

No meeting today - but a supervision session (ph.d.), and 100 emails.

Two meetings and a further meeting by email

Today I have attended a leadership meeting at the Faculty of social sciences, and a meeting in the research administration at the faculty (both in Teams), plus taken part in a meeting of the faculty´s appointments committee conducted by email.

New, healthier email routine off-work

Since work this autumn commenced after the summer holidays, I have had a new afternoon routine, in-between getting home from work and putting kids to bed, not checking email in this period. On days where I write on my novel, or write (only) on my climate change book in the evening, nor do I check email in the evening, meaning that these days I do not check email between 4.30 pm and next morning.

New routine for sake of sanity and focussed work and spare time

New work routine now that I am Vice-Dean of Research: No email in evenings and weekends, unless I am urgently contacted by phone.
