I thought the Teamsters were the trucker union and were relatively powerful…

In my role I get copious email, direct, cc’d for visibility or automated stuff.

In Gmail, I build a rule to label and archive automated things like alerts or bills and keeps them out of my inbox and I can choose to engage at my leisure.

For everything else I star and archive. I have a few points throughout the day I triage or act on. Immediate response things get responded too, things I need to address but it’s not urgent I star and archive. Then I look through my starred emails occasionally to see if anything has risen in priority for me to address, and I do so. Everything else lays untouched in starred.

What I find is this keeps me close to inbox zero, helps me keep important stuff visible and often stuff I’ve starred, given time takes care of itself before I engage and I eventually unstar it to never be seen again as it just wasn’t important or didn’t need my engagement.

It works well for me. Sometimes I get behind, and that’s ok. I’m only one person, and I have time boxed time to prevent email dominating my life

I’m just here for that punchline. Exquisite!

It’s the Gameboy of Theseus!

Goodness, I just had a memory of web rings in the 90s on tripod, anglefire, and geocities, lol.

If I set up a Lemmy instance it’ll have to be named lemmycities.
