Using e-mail is a great tool, especially if you are trying to cut down on company costs via international phone calls and postage fees. Another point I would like to stress is to archive your e-mails for a certain period of time that either you or your company feels would be appropriate. At least you will have proof of it.

You have to share your secrets with us, if you are not feeling stressed, which I hope you are not. My response to this is: Wow, you are doing the work of 3 people? Ok, I had to squeeze that in.

Consistently showing up at work resentful, angry, or stressed serves absolutely no one. And no – I don’t mean fill them in on all the office gossip.

Set your cell phone alarm so you give yourself enough time to wake up, get out of the sleepy daze, and be functional when you return to your desk. If you're lucky, there's not a phone in the restroom or you're not expected to answer your cell phone from there. Don't gossip or share confidential things, but you get my point.

The best way to deal with stressful situations like this is to stop, take a breath and relax for a few minutes. Just getting out the tension will release any anxiety and stress you may have. This happens to me quite often, since I help about 30 people, including 6 managers. Exercise can do wonders.
