Just that really. I have returned from annual leave to find all the work has been waiting for me, emails unanswered despite an out of office on requesting the email my colleague or Manager. We share our role and when he is away I always respond to emails and cover his work as well as my own. This isnt work that should be left or can have penalties and implications.
I have been up until now resolving all the issues just so I can have a more normal day tomorrow, when I log on again at 8am.
I think I need to raise this with my Manager but I noted some of the emails are from her, and really she should know as I am away that my colleague should be dealing with them.
This happens all the time, and I am starting to dread taking leave as it just means double the work when I return.
How do others cope, is this the same for everyone or am I just unlucky
