Saving Time

Looking to save time to focus on the more important aspects of your work?

Did you know you can clean up your inbox in Microsoft Outlook by using email Rules?

Here’s what I’ve done with this WONDERFUL feature. I’ve taken all of the information emails and automatically directed them to their own folder by using a RULE. Here’s only some how I’ve broken them out.

1. Safety & Health
2. Corporate information
3. IT notice/service
4. COVID-19
5. daily/weekly production report
6. Weather alarms/reports
7. and more

This has freed up my inbox to focus on my work. I can deal with the important project emails as they come in while I focus on my tasks.

For 2-5 minutes on the hour I deal with any of the information emails.

So our Water Management group is beginning an excellent project at work where we have to quantify how well these drains are performing in gravel with only gravity to force the water through. We need a measure of performance to see how well our money is working. We have hydrologist and engineers working in the same department and I got to speak with the lead Hydrogeologist concerning it. So far he has concluded that using the conservation of momentum and some things we learned in school via a class. We’ll have to generate some engineering curves showing flow rate versus head as a function of gravel size, height of water, water velocity, an equivalent Reynolds number, and final orifice size of the drain the water will finally going through. It should be interesting. I’ll let you know what we come up with. In the mean time, have a wonderful evening.

This is my first experiment in blogging. Hello! I hope I get to share some of my thoughts, feelings, interests and humor with you. That’s all for right now. Take care!
