I was out of the office for 4 work days and one holiday, and got roughly 650 e-mails during that time. My inbox looks like a paper monster went on a bender and used it as a chuck bucket. My desk was somehow replaced with a large pile of redwelds and boxes with 4 stubby wooden legs under it.
The worst part: Stuff On My Chair. Everyone knew I was out for the whole week, yet still somehow thought it was a good idea to put Stuff On My Chair with notes that it was supposed to be done by last Thursday.
Honestly, I really begin to wonder whether it would be better to just never go on vacation again, or be unemployed.

Welcome back!
When I take days off, I always tape a note to my chair that says something like, "I will be out of the office until [return date] - put things in my chair at your own risk..." Not that it does any good.
Atta boy! When I went to the beach with Dear Hubby last week, I begged him to leave me there until I maxed out my credit card. I figured I was golden for at least six mos :P
