ballpark, how many emails do you accumulate? And of that probably exorbitant number, how many really mean anything to you by the time you get back in the office? This is one of the worst parts of going on vacation, coming back to wade through meaningless email for 1/2 a day.... someone take me back to cozumel. NOW.

When I was away in August I had 137 emails. Most of which were from the Bow, and were irrelevant by the time I got back

207. And I'm like the most unimportant person in the chain of people, so most of them were deleted. People just feel they need to "cc" me on everything. gee. Thanks.

After a week out here, I came back to about 50 and flagged maybe 6 of them needing follow-up sometime this week. And I had 4 voicemails too.
Have I mentioned before how I hate that blinkin' message light

I haven't really left my email accounts unchecked for a week but if I did, I would probably end up with 70-80 unread messages, mostly junk...

Maybe 3 or 4. And those would be some person who I have no idea who they even are, telling me they will be out of the office on Monday.
