When you need it later: The Bring-Forward System

Laughing all the Way to Work

.© Copyright Patricia Robb 2010 15 March, 2009 When you need it later: The Bring-Forward System My boss likes me to keep him organized and the way I do that is to have a system to bring forward items, which I then bring to his attention when he needs to see it. The system I use is quite simple and has been around for a long time.

Oh where or where is my password?

Laughing all the Way to Work

I logged onto my computer last week and put in my network password, then to open my Outlook account I had to put another password in for that. Thank goodness I get three tries to pick the right one before the system locks me out. Lets enjoy our day together.© The first time it doesnt work, I assume I entered it wrong so try again.

Calendar "ah ha"

Laughing all the Way to Work

How many times I have booked a meeting thinking the day was free, only to notice later that an all-day event was put in unnoticed at the top. I have a similar system with my boss. I put travel in red and action reminders in yellow, but that is our own system and it works for us. Who notices that string along the top anyway?

Let your fingers do the walking: Quick keyboard shortcut keys

Laughing all the Way to Work

I must admit that it helps that I learnt to use a computer on the old DOS system and shortcut keys were the only option, but even those who normally use a mouse can transition over quite easily. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. Better for you ergonomically as well. Excellent material!
