This assistant answers 400 emails a day for a CEO
Can you imagine what it would be like to answer about 400 emails a day? If you worked a 10-hour day, that's 40 an hour; but don't forget you need to take the time to read an email, then write back (and proofread).
Kristen Quint is an assistant to the CEO of 23andMe cofounder Anne Wojcicki, and she has a pretty busy schedule. Actually, it's insane. Here's a summary of just one day:
It takes up to 3 hours to get home in busy San Francisco Bay Area traffic. She sometimes doesn't get home until 9:30 pm. All we can say is that we hope she is making at least $200,000 a year because SF is the most expensive city in the United States.
