Grown-Up Email Addresses

you know who you are. it's time.


If you are out of college, it may be wise to consider some sort of non-nickname, non-numeric (if possible), non-team/school/sports/birthday-affiliated email address.

I realize this is just my opinion.

But it never fails to surprise me when, at work, a customer may tell me in all seriousness that her email address is something like, "dixiemama289@suchandsuch.com" ....what? That's your business email address?

I was LApril88@aol.com with the best of 'em...but the ship has sailed.

Maybe i'm a snob? I just can't take these jokester/cutesy email addresses seriously anymore.
