I'm a medical technologist--I look for germs in patient specimens, including the-virus-that-must-not-be-named. :?

I feel your pain! I'm a senior audit manager in a large accounting firm and I alternate between answering unproductive emails and taking unproductive calls, as opposed to actually doing any accounting :lol:

I send those emails in the capacity of The Client.
