With all the ways we have to reach each other these days – phone, email, txt msg, Wave, etc…, I’m brought back tot he age-old question….
How much time is considered appropriate for a response to an email before writing again?
Now, I understand that people are busy. I also know that not all email is the same. So to that end, lets take urgent emails off the table. I’m also taking “place” off the table. Clearly an email sent to you mom and one sent to your boss will get different responses. There is no way to accommodate all of the different types of email, but I’m just looking for a general idea, anyway. I’m talking about your every day, run-of-the-mill, I-have-this-issue-and-need-you-to-reply-to-it email.
So, [polldaddy poll=2256095]

Everyone sends email on Monday. I just went into my email, and I received 351 messages Sat, Sun and Monday. So I come in on Monday to this stack from the weekend which just builds through the day on Monday. I try, but many times I am not caught up until Thursday, and that is even with strong filters and clearing out over the weekend.
