Scenario

When teams can't enforce Sabbath boundaries because of unspoken power dynamics

Our department agreed to email-free Sundays but our director keeps sending 'non-urgent' messages that everyone responds to anyway because we're all afraid to be the one who doesn't, and no one will call it out directly.

What we've seen
