What happens in your inbox doesn't always stay there.
In fact, one stupid email from your work account can have serious real-world consequences.
"Email can be a wonderfully efficient time-saving tool - if used properly," Michael Kerr, an international business speaker and author of "The Humor Advantage" told Business Insider.
"Unfortunately, survey after survey reveals that email has also become the bane of many a workplace, often cited as one of the top sources of workplace stress, both because of the sheer volume of email and because how people misuse email. So as a general rule of thumb, before you hit the send button always ask yourself if this is a message that you need to send, period, and if this is a message that would be better delivered in person or over the phone."
Don't let your email habits land you in hot water. Make sure to avoid sending these materials over your work account, point blank:
