[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the responses so far!  This has been very helpful with crafting my plan of attack.

9:04 am poster - this was super helpful in framing my frame of mind and gave me a few more things to ask.

9:33 poster - To answer your questions:

1.  I don't know.  I am trying to get this clarified in writing right now by both HR and my immediate supervisor (who isn't in today...boo!)
2.  I have never been told an expected time frame for responding to incoming communications. For some emails that may take 15-30 to answer, if I have been busy with a project, I may have taken a day or two.  [b]One example that came up in my conversation with my boss was that I was emailed to asked to do something that day but didn't do it until the next day because while the email was sent at 2 pm I was in meetings until late that evening away from my desk[/b].  I was also given crap about one that I wasn't email copied on!
3.  I'm not sure.  I haven't received the formal letter yet so I don't know if examples will be given.  When my boss returns to the office I plan on asking who complained about me and what are the examples. 
4.  I'm not sure.  I know it isn't my biggest client.  I think it is my boss's boss.  He is VERY disconnected with our department and is hardly around and probably has no idea that we are even down staff he is so out of touch![/quote]

For the bolded, set up your Out of Office to indicate you are "in meetings & will not be responding to emails until (whenever). If you need assistance before that time, please contact (someone else in your department or give a phone number they can reach you)[/quote]
