How to respond to clueless emails from students?

New classes start on Monday, and in the middle of getting ready for 2 online and 1 hybrid (one of which I just get) I get emails from students wanting to know what the book is, where to go to find the class, when it will be available, etc.

Argh!

Oh, did I mention that they never tell me which class they are in as if I don't have but their one class and have just been sitting here waiting for them to send me their clueless email.


And then one signs her email "Have a blessed day!"

I am thinking of signing my response (Yes, I do respond to all of them):

"Have a politically correct day!"

Did I mention, I don't have time for this sh**?
