I just recently read an article on it and was surprised when I really paid attention to the messages I was sending myself that some of them were negative.

Heres an article I recently found on office fridge etiquette. Heres an excerpt on the article: Do not eat or drink foods that do not belong to you. Are you in a constant battle to get your food into a pint-sized fridge because others leave their food there for days on end? Do not leave food in the refrigerator to rot and smell.

Heres an article I found on a fellow Administrative Assistants website for some great uses. If you are booking a meeting for yourself, for others or both, give everyone ample time to respond to the meeting and provide a reminder (theres a check box for this in the meeting set up page) of at least 15 minutes.
