I arrange quite a few events and have realized the importance of reading and reviewing the contracts carefully, highlighting key dates. I had an event for November 7th and the contract was signed, sealed and delivered, but then I noticed the hotel had put the wrong date on the contract. What are the dates you can cancel by?

If someone puts in a "birthday" or a "pick up the dry cleaning" reminder in their calendar as an all-day event, to those who are using the Scheduler, it will look like the person is busy for the day and in reality they may have the day open. I put travel in red and action reminders in yellow, but that is our own system and it works for us.

I am speaking this morning at an administrative event so looking forward to meeting some new assistants. The one good thing about speaking at an event where nobody knows me is, they have no idea whether my hair is supposed to be this dark. Some good advice to pass along: Never colour your hair the night before an event.

Another time I wanted to try a career in the travel business. I have become familiar with time zones, airport codes and international holidays to avoid. I have seen some contracts for event planners and it seems like a lucrative career to get into. Now I am glad I stayed in this career because I can do all these things.

Have you ever been at an event that isnt well organized? He then proceeded to tell me about a previous event he was at where there was no organization. If so, what would you recommend in terms of training (university not included/possible). It is great training for the office environment, no matter what field you end up in.

I thought I would pass this tip along in the event you find yourself wishing you could take your words back. I also do not claim to give any medical, financial, psychological, veterinary, retail, personal training or HR advice, although at times it may seem like I think I know what Im talking about, it is just my opinion.
