The seasonal balancing act
If you are going to be away from work for a week or so, it's customary to leave your colleagues a note.
You know, to alert them to things that need to be done or situations that might come up during your absence.
But how much detail is really necessary? Certainly, you want to provide co-workers with all the information they might need. Still, composing a massive document could come off as, well, a tad self-important. And it could suggest that you don't have confidence that your colleagues are capable of remembering to tie their shoes.
So how have you approached this "While I'm away" balancing act?
