Americans are working really hard. Perhaps too hard. 80 percent of 1,000 U.S. workers surveyed worked after leaving the office. People check their email in bed in the morning (50%), before 8 a.m. (68%), after 10 p.m. (40%), when they are out with their families (57%), and when they are at the dinner table (38%). And 69 percent say they can’t go to bed without doing so. All of this means we are almost working an entire extra day of work from home.
