Work smarter, not harder.
The first scripts send a message to his wife only when his console is active- means he is really working. And I'm sure she knows about it anyway. I would find it adorable, if my husband wrote such script:)
Better that than forgetting telling about it, which is what very likely happens when one is working late & hard.
This isn't being lazy at all, it's being very efficient. He obviously has the tools and knowledge to automate simple things allowing him to concentrate on more difficult tasks.
THANK you. Automating repetitive tasks takes work & skill, but saves time in the long run. Nothing lazy about it.
