This is a question Procrastination

Outlook is a wonderful tool, but not when it keeps reminding you that it is now 96 weeks since you were supposed to finish a report you haven't even started yet.

Just how lazy are you? How long will you put off the essential or the inevitable? What do you fill the time with?

(We're too lazy to write something funny here. You do it.)

Keeping Outlook sent mail
In my old job (I worked there for over 8 years), I kept every email I ever sent. There were about 20,000 when I left. If I couldn't be bothered doing work, I would look at the email that I sent a year ago or 6 years ago, or whatever.

Alternatively, I would think up interesting searches, like analysing the frequency of emails that contain swear words over time. (Iirc they exponentially grew from 2001 to a peak at the end of 2006 then trailed off.)

I did this for a similar length of time
40,000+ emails. I like to think there's backup tapes out there with my collection of naughty emails sent back and forth between me and my girlfriend, all my newsletters and subscriptions and jokes. It's my legacy.
