So Leslie's book is called Sleeping With Your Smartphone, which is super memorable.
Yeah.
So there's also a piece of this that is not just about job design, which I think you're offering a beautiful remedy here.

Ariana Huffington has done a lot of thinking on this in her Thrive movement.
Has a little bed for your phone.

Everyone chasing this is honoring our human biology, which is that we were designed to rest and recover, rest and recover, rest and recover, not these marathon work lives that we're trying to live.
