When youre on a phone call, do people hover over you? You dont want people coming up to you, hovering and waiting for you to put down the phone for a few seconds to let them know that you are in a training session. Are you the main contact in your department? Its inevitable, but its part of your job description.

It is very important if you get phone calls and make decisions on a file to document that by writing a note and putting it on the file by date. You want to file letters, faxes and e-mails received and sent chronologically. You will not remember later what transpired and what arrangements were made. Your file should be neat.

Fax Machine- At this point, everyone should be capable of sending attachments via email. for those few technophobes that refuse to be dragged into the 21 st century and insist on faxing you, all you need is Nextiva , up to 500 pages a month for just $4.95.

Do you want to walk over to their cubicle while their talking loudly on the phone and give them a piece of your mind? Shes always humming, whistling, talking loudly on the phone, laughing hysterically (who knows at what?), This happens to the best of us all of the time. Try as I may, but she annoys the heck out of me.

It’s 2013, and you know that faxing is an antiquated technology. At the same time, you realize that some people still use it, and it’s unprofessional not to have a fax number if someone requests it. An online fax service is a technology that bridges old world faxing with new(er) world email.

There are some companies that, unfortunately, don’t allow for purchases such as stationary , fax machines , toner , etc. Do you feel that you could find better buys, not just by going to the different stores such as Staples or Grand & Toy , but online as well? Since I work for a large corporation, this is my case as well.

Then I have my faxes set up as green. For example, I receive an e-mail from my direct supervisor. This will show up in red, since I know I have to get to this one first, before I can even touch any other one. I know that this would be next, since people depend on these quite a bit around my office.

Do you touch base with your assistant every morning (face-to-face or by telephone) to discuss the day’s priorities, appointments, meeting preparation, department issues, phone calls, and project updates. An example is a red file for urgent mail and faxes, yellow for interoffice reports, green for general mail, blue for junk mail, etc.

Then you finally do reach a live person and you are so fed up with all of the time wasted, that you start fuming towards the person on the other end of the phone. Now put yourself in that persons shoes. Imagine that you were on the receiving end of the conversation. How would you feel?

I said, "If I called you at work in the middle of the day, would you be able to come to the phone and chat?" Any personal calls they have to make to the bank, insurance company or any personal matters, he always asks his wife to do it because he says, "You sit at your desk all day and have a phone readily available, so it is easier for you".

  Start with something like electronic faxes.    We use a service that allows a person to fax to a phone number, but rather than a physical fax coming out on our end, it lands in our email in-boxes.    Most of the time we look at the fax and file it electronically, or delete it.

You can communicate via email; you can use things like Google Docs, Adobe and e-Signature to send documents and contracts; even faxes can be sent and received online thanks to companies like FaxZero and MyFax. Thanks to the internet and the myriad of services that it provides, there really is no need to use as much paper to conduct business.

Using e-mail is a great tool, especially if you are trying to cut down on company costs via international phone calls and postage fees. People use e-mail too frequently, making messages more and more convoluted as they go back and forth like a tennis ball.

So next time you want to make a reservation via phone, hang it up and try OpenTable.com instead! I can then forward it to the particular manager that asked for the reservation, since they can quote the confirmation number to the restaurant, just in case something happens. Until next time, Take care - of your clutter!
