Much easier than searching in Outlook and less stressful. I dont want to miss a step so always go through the checklist on the travel sheet. The good thing about keeping them all in a central spot is I always know where the paperwork is and can easily grab it when I need it.

Having a buddy can take some of the stress off and give you assurance that you have someone you can depend on. Many times I am so thankful I had that quick chat or read that email that I was copied on as that was the exact information I needed when they were away. Yes, it is always nice to have a work buddy.

Jo Meunier [ 00:01:24] Well, that’s quite a resume. And that trust starts to get stressed when people are remote and never saw each other or haven’t seen each other for the last two years.

Again, I want to learn how to cope with it for my career (this is a major position for a resume) because I know it's him and not me. 3) Have stress reduction and coping mechanisms in place.

Humour is a powerful stress reliever if done in good taste, but timing is everything. Its not that Im funny, because Im not, but I find a lot of things funny. Both of these positions were in the busiest offices I have ever worked in, but when the going gets tough, humour seems to abound!

I hated the mental stress and burden of putting everyone else first and getting only the usual thank you’s and words of appreciation. I also thought long and hard about why I was so unhappy and stressed at my job and why I had growing resentment. I hated having to do EVERY LITTLE thing for my boss. I learned I need a vacation ASAP.

As an aside, pen and paper will suffice if I have to, but you can see that the checklist can help avoid any unnecessary stresses from happening. Another thing to put on your checklist if you are using a laptop is a memory stick. A memory stick is my back up if my laptop and I part ways.

One of the things they stressed was to hire well. My former boss gave me an excellent reference on paper and by phone. A good reference can go a long way towards getting your next job. I read an interesting article on what management can do to prevent lay offs. They advised not to be so quick to hire someone just to fill the position.

Perhaps we put a lot of the stress on ourselves because we feel that every e-mail has to be replied to immediately. When I have spoken to people who are extremely frustrated about the back and forth of e-mail, I have to wonder why they felt they needed to answer it so urgently in the first place.

On the contrary, if you’re resuming only to openly stating your expertise you will most likely generate the opposite effect of reputation: people will start to avoid you. While this may be true, until they don’t make their skills obvious, nobody will even know what they do. This is why we still have 6 more articles to go.

Have a system in place to acknowledge that youve received a resume and/or cover letter when they come flooding in. It may cost you some time in the beginning, but it will save you in the long run when job seekers tie up your phone lines or e-mail asking, "Did you get my resume?" Besides, its just common courtesy.
