And you reply to all of them promptly? 
A civil servant wouldnât get that many in a month. I canât get over the difference since I made to transition. I could go away for 2 weeks and land back to 15 new emails 
When I was embedded in the corporate world Iâd get about 70/80 per day. The only answer is to batch read themâŚ
Set aside 30 mins in the morning to read them. The 80/20 rule applies⌠As in the vast majority of them can be ignored.
Do another batch read around 3pm.
Turn off outlook in the meantime or even turning off the little envelope notification can help. If some cunt really wants you, theyâll Skype you or call you etc.

is your job info@ ?
thereâs no such thing as work life balance pal, just life.
No
I agree - The problem is emails are instantaneous and senders expect an instant response, they are on the phone if youâre not back to them in 10mins
What class of industry are you in? From the way you describe your job is set up for you to respond immediately, so the advice from the book either doesnât apply to your job or youâre doing something wrong?
they must have fuck all else to do

Sounds like a shit place to work. Let them ring you sure.
He should try not answering emails after 5pm or putting a notification on his emails to expect a response time of 3hrs.

Work is just a thing I do to pay for life. Taking it any more seriously is a mugâs game

Anybody that thinks they have a âcareerâ has been sold a pup. Itâs an insidious wormy word coined to get you to do a lot more for a little more.
âPromotiionâ is another sparrowfart of a concept. A web for the ego, the castration of the mind and a snare for the stupid.
