One time I saw a tweet from a hiring manager that said they asked to see the email inbox of anyone who claimed to be "organized" or have "high attention to detail" and it scared me into this level of work inbox management, largely automated

The automations largely take care of the labeling and sorting. I have Google Alerts set up for industry news and I do look at that folder quite a bit. I don't think you need to do this at all EVER. I am just succumbing to the paranoid idea someone would judge me about it one day because I do pride myself on being organized LMAO

If it works, it works!

I tried this approach when I first joined Google which unsurprisingly has a lot of meta discussion on inbox management. I couldn’t stick to it.

The only label I use is is:archived and I just throw everything that isn’t directly addressed to me in there. Happy as a clam now.

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

This is real organization! What you see above is organization theatre!!!!!!!

When I feel overwhelmed or fall off the organization wagon I still go to the 4 D's I learned in my early 30's from ... Covey?

Do it
Date it
Delegate it
Dump it

Choose one, NOW and move on

Kind of but that's not organized necessarily

I would be doomed if they asked me this. 😂

😂😂you could have taken the easy way out and skipped saying “organised” or the other.

Keccers and challenges🤝

Wow this is so organized 
If you’re comfortable with it please share how you did it like each label

i saw tweet about organized people, scared into managing inbox with automation

That hiring manager's tweet is a great reminder that actions speak louder than words. I'm impressed that you took the initiative to revamp your inbox management system. It shows you're proactive and committed to excellence.

how’d you manage to set this all up? 😭😭😭

Didn’t even know gmail had such features
lol

It works for you 😂
How did you set this up

they didn’t tell you to check people who say they “can work well under pressure”?😭
that’s the most notorious one
