    Is it me, or in every picture of him I've ever seen, Rob has a touch of the Dreamworks face?

        That's my work email. I get close to 300/day.

        I ignore most of them and then tell most of the rest to GO SUCK MY DICK and then reply, earnestly, to the others as to pretend like I'm doing work.

        If you get ~600 mails each day and are supposed to answer them, when do you do the actual work?

          ~300. Hardly ever gets to 300/day, but it gets close most days.

          And exactly.

          A lot of them are cross-promotion offers for jobs within the company or poachers looking for other companies. Even more are bullshit 'announcements' from the company - things like adverts for new tools we're developing or reminders to be happy and productive, that sort of thing.

          A lot of them are bullshit that I shouldn't have had to have been bothered with in the first place. My usual response is to tell the sender that it's not worth my time and they need to "suck my dick". (Not really - I have emailed that, on occasion, but only to people in my office who know better.)

          Only a few of them are worthy of my time. But, I waste my whole day sifting through the rest to find them.

          Don't even get me started on phone calls - or, shit, people who just drop by my office to talk for too goddamned long. OH AND CONFERENCE CALLS. FUCK. I want to cut my own dick off and choke on it every time I get stuck on a conference call.

          I'd say that on any given day, I only get about an hour of real work done. Maybe a half an hour before and after lunch.

          (No, it's not that bad - but it seems like it some days)

            So, you can't sing and you play a fake guitar? Like, the band wasn't impressive enough without more than one guitarist, but you can't actually play guitar so you just stand there and blow steam?

            Kinda like the fourth smokestack on the RMS Titanic?

            Got it. You're just as useless as I imagined.

            Oh, you also have the horn and something something boner sandwich something I wish I was getting laid.

            Right-O, chap!

            Wow, that seems to be really bad, I get around 20 mails a day and even that steals around an hour of time I could use to be productive (if I wouldn't spend that much time getting coffee anyway). At least our admins tend to be rather hard on spammers, so nobody is trying to send to many mails addressed to everyone, as they don't want the big bad admin walking in and hold them a 30 minute long lecture on how much mail is appropriate.

            Luck for me is that my collegues tend to rather use the instant messenger than calling, it's easier to ignore messages than calls.

              Nearly all of the 'spam' I get is from my company, so it's hard for the admins to say STOP IT LOL.

              I've gotten pretty crafty with my regex filters, though - most of it doesn't hit the inbox on my work email. Also note that the Mac is my home computer, it just archives my work emails as it pulls them from the pop account. So, I don't really have that many that are unread - most of the time I'm only thumbing through them on my BlackBerry, anymore.

              What's the MOST annoying are the idiots that always email me with a priority flag and URGENT, PRIORITY, OPEN IMMEDIATELY in the subject line. I would regex those out, but I would miss out on my boss's emails warning me of my imminent demise.

              I can actually play guitar, and drums, but mostly guitar in my old age.
              Cant sing for shit though. And i'm a man, I always have the horn, and I like sandwiches.
              The getting laid bit, well, a man always needs to get laid more. I do ok, but I could do with more action.

              Lots of love
