I made an interesting observation today... I only had one new email to open today, all day, at my work email account. Earlier this week, I've been having to check and read emails frequently, at one point with 9 emails arriving in one day. The most common denominator in those 9 emails? My boss. Guess who wasn't at work today.
I think I have an email happy manager. And to make it worse, we only just got work email addresses, so right now, she's convinced that we don't check our email often enough, and therefore sends each email to both our work and home email addresses. On a rough guess, only 1 out of every 5 (and possibly as few as 1 out of every 10) of these emails that she sends out is relevant to me, and information that I didn't already get somewhere else. And, I get it all twice. I'm currently toying with the idea of marking her as "spam" on my hotmail account so that I don't have to get everything twice, however that might actually be being small and petty and she probably will be offended if she figures it out. I'll have to keep thinking about it.
