Title: I challenge Erika
Post by: Emily on November 15, 2007, 11:20:03 AM: Erika!

I have 2052 unread emails in my mailbox. This is a work email account I didn't know I had until last week (been here a year). So I just wanted to challenge your unread email count.

How many do you have?

That's my yahoo account.

For work I have many unread, but I also get copied on every broadcast/marketing email and email test we send out. I don't have to look at every one...

Plus a lot of system-generated emails where I don't have to read much more than the subject lines.

yeah i dont know. i missed out on a few things, like office parties and other reasons to leave my little cubicle. but i'm kind of under the radar & not really a go-to person. usually people will just say "hey emily, blah blah blah" when i see them. you know?

i'd totally mud wrestle. i am in dire need of some excitement in my life.
