Assignee Setup: Productivity Template for Remote Workers

Remote workers wear many hats—communicator, deep worker, calendar manager, personal chef.

Without structure, chaos takes over. Here’s a sample Assignee setup designed specifically for remote workers.

Shortcut Layout

  • Control + Tab, S → Slack or Teams
  • Control + Tab, C → Calendar
  • Control + Tab, N → Work project tools (Notion, Jira, etc.)
  • Control + Tab, W → Deep work app (editor, Figma, etc.)
  • Control + Tab, E → Personal admin (email, banking)

Features to Use

  • Local shortcuts per workspace
  • App groups for morning, afternoon, evening modes
  • Contextual window jump: jump back to the document you left open

Final Thought

Remote work requires more than just freedom—it requires systems. Assignee gives you the tools to build yours.
