Loosely Speaking

OCTOBER 18, 2008

I’m sorry to hear you have a loved one with a medical problem. I hated having to do that. Anyway, I decided it would be better to make a simpler pattern so that is about 1/8 of the way finished. I also know how that feels and how it can take your mind over whenever there is a free moment. Get Loosely Speaking Products.

My boss likes me to print his weekly calendar on Monday so he can see at a glance what he has for the week so I clip that to the front of the folder. I then print his daily calendar and slip that in the left pocket of the folder and on the right side I put everything he will need for the day. I do this for each day of the week.

That makes it difficult when I am supposed to be organizing his calendar, but since I am responsible to organize his time and in spite of my frustration, I have to make it work. So what can you do when your boss is ruining your perfectly scheduled calendar? Internal meetings can usually be changed more easily so start there.

To set a recurring 9-5 meeting (as opposed to clicking all-day meeting) I dont like the all-day meeting settings as they are out of sight at the top of the calendar and easily missed. His calendar then shows blocked time and nobody misses seeing that he is away. Your bosses calendar will now show Monday to Wednesday blocked from 9-5.

Once a date is finalized I put it in my bosss calendar and confirm the meeting with the other participants.
