Phone Day
The phone has been ringing non-stop today. It's my day to man the phones and I swear the entire world knows it. As I was stepping out to get lunch I heard it ring and had to supress the urge to answer. I enjoy talking with publishers on the phone and the instant service I can give them. But the more calls I get, the longer it takes to get to the those who email their questions and requests. It's not unlike those days in the Web Devopment Office when I struggled to keep up with e-mailed requests and long projects because of all the "emergency" projects that got phoned in. I've a weekend's worth of applications and dozens of e-mails to respond to and the phone won't stop long enough for me to get more than half-way through any of them. This kind of multi-tasking is woefully inefficient.
