Email Etiquette: Part 2

I love the comments and discussion that can occur on LinkedIn. The forum keeps it professional (more or less) and hopefully the content makes people think and weigh in.

101,000 views in 24 hours (5x any topic I’ve posted- ever…) says emails at 10:30 at night are a very big deal. In reading some of the comments I did wonder – do you ever think that sometimes…. maybe…. we take ourselves a little too seriously and others a little too literally? As one person said “now I know who I want to work with and who I don’t”. Point being – these posts and life in general- are about nuance and critical thinking.

There are times for 10:30 texts and calls and emails. And times when they are selfish. It’s up to you to decide when they fall in which category. And it’s up to your colleagues to decide if you made the right choice. But either way you decide to go in your communication choices – I practice what I preach: I wrote this at 10:30 last night and waited to post it until this morning (write drunk, edit sober).
