One afternoon, while mopping the floor, she overheard a phone call that left him in a terrible frown, Insurance asking for more money than he had, and her heart began to drown. Not wanting to burden or rely on others for rides, the teen walked an approximately 10-mile round trip commute to work, in the dark, for more than a year. Elisa Zied.

INTERVIEW WELL Make it a conversation. You are interviewing them too so ask questions. Take notes during the interview so you don’t forget what you wanted to ask. If you don’t get it, it wasn’t the right job for you or the right time. Admin in the Spotlight: Interview with Lynn Holgat.

Sometimes I wish I had something to warn me when I am with someone with a cell phone so I can know that we are going to be interrupted. I find it frustrating when people either text while in a conversation or are constantly taking phone calls. Apparently not, when its by phone. In an emergency, the cell phone is a useful tool.

If you don’t have e-mail folders, create some and sort messages as they are received. Check: Are phone calls planned? For each one, write down what you hope to accomplish with the phone call to help you stay focused. Manage: Try scheduling e-mail checks every two hours to minimize time spent with the e-mail account open.

If you have to answer the phone, deal with an email or attend to something for your boss, do so, as that is the nature of the admin job -- multi-tasking, but once you have done it, go right back to your to-do list, re-focus and continue what you were doing.
