If you can prove yourself as a good worker you can go up through the ranks and because they already know how you work, they are more apt to promote you. Of course if you know in the probationary period that this is just not the right fit for you, better to get out rather than being in a job you hate. Oh where or where is my password?

Fax Blasts I remember someone from my IAAP Chapter asked me to fax the notice of our Chapter dinner to a list of about 60 companies to promote it. It is usually a business I am interested in and I want to know when new courses or products are offered. Let your fingers do the walking: Quick keyboard sh. Going, going, gone.

Of course being well rested is one of the things that enables me to do that. It’s a great feeling to be able to sit down at the keyboard, fully confident in your ability, clean of any doubt or future-worry and, is especially great when the recommended 8.25 Nobody asked you what you actually got done. hours of sleep is achieved.

This is where bloggers get a head start: if you have a blog, you have a good reason to put fingers to keyboard on a regular basis. Of course, many writing lessons apply across multiple genres. Of course, the inverse is also true: “What the… this is fucking horrible. John Paul Aguiar´s last blog.

Until recently, I never really took this seriously, but then one of the people I met on Facebook (it all started with a polite and standard: “thank you for your blog” message) offered to proof-read some of my blog posts, if I would agree, of course.
