Inbox: 848
That was the amount of unread email messages I had the moment I logged into my work account this afternoon.
A result of being away for close to half a year on course.
Didn't matter that most of them were junk, it still took me a considerable amount of time trying to clear them.
You may have wondered why I didn't suspend my account temporarily while being away.
Fact was, I was still very new to the organisation prior to going for training and thought I could still assess the account at my training locations.
How wrong I was.
After a while, it dawned on me that it was impossible to check my mail and since being new, not many important mails would be shot at me during my training period so I left it as it was, deciding to brace myself for the onslaught of messages that would come my way once I was back.
Learnt the hard way to always suspend your account and send a reminder to all if you will be away for an extended period.
Welcome back, Melvin.
