If you couldn’t figure out how to check your email or read documentation, it sounds like you were looking for reasons to fail. Pairing doesn’t mean you’re literally joined at the hip. You’re allowed to exercise judgment.

Well, no, in our case it literally did mean we were "joined at the hip" - we shared one computer.
"Bloing!" -- "Oh look, an email. Never mind, I'll read that later."
"Bloing!" -- "Oh look, I think I need to read that email now." -- "OK, I'll toodle over to my own desk and see if I've got any. See you in five."
A computer isn't a hip.
