2 weeks...I've decided that I need to make all business trips at least 2 weeks long. I just returned from Indianapolis with a huge stack of paper and an inbox crowded with e-mails. The trip was only 3 days long. I knew I was busy most days and I'm beginning to understand why...all I do is return e-mail and answer questions.
When I'm out of the office for a week or longer, most people find out the answers to their questions through another source. Only 3 days...Especially the last 3 days of the week, people are willing to wait until I return. I should tell people I'm coming back a day later than I am. It may give me a chance at catching up.

not a comm person but some how this just doesn't seem quite right...
what do you do?
that was rather vague, what do you do for a job?
I work from a company called Press Ganey (www.pressganey.com). I'm a Knowledge Manager. The company does satisfaction measurement for health care. (If you ever go to a hospital and get a survey, we probably mailed it to you) I do research on healthcare industry trends for improving patient satisfaction.
