Short Post About Short Emails

The Puumaja Crew loves this. How many of us have overflowing inboxes that we can't possibly attend to as adequately as we would like to or even at all adequately say 'aye'! The Puumaja certainly does and we don't even work in the conventional sense of the word.

So the premise here is, keep your email responses to a maximum of two sentences (or three, or four, or five but no more). That way you treat email more like SMS messaging rather than a vortex that sucks you in all day long, preventing you from actually doing anything. There's nothing that can't be said in that amount of space.

Not an excuse for poor punctuation, grammar, spelling, or etiquette, that can be just as grating as a Joycean stream of consciousness on a Monday morning, just keep it simple.
