3 posts you might’ve missed

#1

Average tenure of EAs is over 10 years! 👑

#2

Came up with these meme while watching the World Cup last week. ⚽

The idea was how goalkeepers and EAs are similar because they both can be 99% perfect but will be considered to do a bad job if they mess up even once.

#3

I can see a world where some EAs become indispensable for their execs solely because the execs are unable to say no to people unless they have their EAs do it for them. 🙅‍♀️

1 Tech Tip

Gmail tip: turn on “Send & Archive”

Did you know Gmail has a built-in Send & Archive button that does both at once? It just saves one click but those clicks add up over time!

How to turn it on

1. Open Gmail on desktop

2. Click the gear icon → See all settings

3. Under General, find Send and Archive

4. Select Show “Send & Archive” button in reply

5. Scroll down and click Save Changes

Now, when you reply to an email, you’ll see a new send button that sends your reply and archives the thread from your inbox.

Unfortunately, Outlook doesn’t really have a clean equivalent here. You can reply, then archive manually, but Gmail gets the satisfying one-click version.

For a refresher on past Tech Tips without digging through your emails, they’re all available in a single post right here (doing my best to update once a month).

Thank you for reading!

Final reminder about the meetups next week in San Francisco and Seattle!

Catch you next Thursday~
