If you too frequently stretch your body from a cloth walled "Office" called the Cubicle, then you too, my friend, would be familiar with that one email that comes almost every day. Yes, the one you can't ignore for the sender is way up in the food chain. Yes, the one with multiple totally unnecessary questions and tasks. The one that would have you dig out even older emails. The one that would need you to churn out numbers faster than a Chinese calculator. Yeah that one.
Now I can't help you with all the blurb. May be I'll try. but not today. But I can share you one tip which will have you type out in-line diff colour responses with no effort that will have your work buddy say, 'Damn, you are a geek!' (Even though we all know that we aren't)
Anyways, Its simple. Type out your salutation. Yeah, think about using a cuss word.Its natural. But don't do it. That aint natural.
Then
1) Please find my response in-line in blue
2) Please find my response inline in blue - Format your blue this one time
3) Please find my response inline in bl ue - Hit Space right between the blue
5) Please find my response inline in blue - Highlight the spaces and cut them out (Ctrl-X) - Now these spaces in your clipboard contain your "Format, color and Font"
6) Paste them out wherever and go crazy.
Can you please explain if Shaq can walk the talk?
Yeah, I just had the whole thing simulated on NBA 08. Phoenix wins just about every game from the All Star Break. The Playoffs were also a breeze. With the simulation, we now have the data that Phoenix will get its first ring. And yes, Shaq's hip did hold good. It even did a 'Hip Check' on Horry.
Do you really think this tip makes you more productive?
I think so. The analysis on the cost savings are still in progress and the results are likely to be incorrect since there is really no model / process that can measure the time savings that you are bound to waste checking news updates about Shaq anyway.
But I do think it gets rid of the boring part where I would have had to repeatedly select and change color.
So there you go. Something new eh?
