Another study ‘proving’ that email is stressing us all out.
For God’s sake, get a grip. As I said before, if you know who its from or it looks important or interesting, open it. If not, ignore it. In the extremely unlikley event that it was important and you hadn’t realised, whoever sent it will follow it up. If they don’t, trash it.
Anyway, those people who use email as a way to avoid having difficult conversations will be too scared to call you out for not replying.
Have a look at your inbox now. Come on, admit it, most of it’s crap, isn’t it?
It’s Thursday and it’s gone Five O’Clock. I suggest you ignore the lot, knock off and go for a beer somewhere.
What stress? It’s very easy to deal with and my preferred method of communication.
