I dunno. I have learned that I truly have no sense for the amount of e-mail some people get.
When I started working at a big company, I felt like a big kid because I was getting 20ish emails a day, many of them automated.
Then I learned that my relative who runs a non-profit can get 1,000 emails from actual human beings in a single day. Her normal day is composing at least 250 individual, non-templates responses.
And now scale that up to one of the biggest/hottest startups in the country at the time.
I’m gonna say that’s kind of an excuse.
- daydream 4y agoA 10 hour workday is 600 minutes. (Who works an 8 hour workday anymore? So 2019.) To write 250 individual non response template emails every day. It means she sits down at her desk at 8am, writes an email every 2.4 minutes for 10 hours straight, and then stops working at 6pm. Seems unlikely.
