people who check their emails on vacation are odd to me. - Mel Profit Aug 28, 07:24 3
- I own my company. That does not simply stop when I am not here. -- nm - Spawn Aug 28, 08:03
- Yup. -- nm - Krusty Aug 28, 07:59 1
  - something literally better be on fire, like a person, for work to try and contact me. - Mel Profit Aug 28, 08:03
Yup. I try to avoid conference calls on holidays or vacations but even that's not 100% successful. -- nm - spamlet Aug 28, 07:02
I looked at mine once while I was out for my two weeks of sick leave. - Kim Pine Aug 28, 06:44
My cell phone is a work phone, so yeah, I check. Unless I'm out of the U.S. -- nm - MDH Aug 28, 06:20
only one day since I've been here have I not checked email. like, one calendar day. -- nm - amanda hk Aug 28, 06:14
I check in a few times....just to make sure of no surprises when I return. -- nm - Walt_Disney Aug 28, 06:04
more or less. unless I'm out of the country, but only because my bberry doesn't have an international plan. -- nm - znufrii Aug 28, 05:52

  - I will e-mail you to-dos daily, so you don't lose practice. -- nm - ty97 Aug 28, 05:58

After Thursday I am off until September 10th. I don't care if I have 1,000+ emails when I get back (which is likely) I woudn't even consider checking - Cuzzin Todd Aug 28, 05:16 4
- is this your vacay where you're driving up Highway 1? if so - that should be a bounty of photo ops :) -- nm - JenBro Aug 28, 05:21 3
  - I love that drive. -- nm - znufrii Aug 28, 05:52
  - YEs - Flying to Seattle Friday morning to start things off. And just switched my rental to a convertable. THAT'S how you do it! -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Aug 28, 05:52 1
    - nice -- nm - znufrii Aug 28, 05:52
for me it depends on how prepared I was to be gone - if I know I haven't covered all bases and there may be issues - I'll check - but ideally - no -- nm - JenBro Aug 28, 05:09
