"I receive about 1200 and send about 200 (emails per day)" - Wow, not sure how he gets anything done with that amount of context switching.
I suppose the biggest issue isn't in a 20-something intern being able to field thousands of words a day, but rather in trusting them not to leak anything or generally tow the line.
Personally, I hope voat.co focuses more on the community rather than the sum of a few corporate-bound individuals.
