One day I walked into my boss’s office and said: “I think all staff should make a time sheet, including you, from now on.” It definitely surprised me, but the results of this request certainly caught the attention of all our staff. I work for a software email marketing and services company. I am currently using my third hat in this business. We’ve been under a “spring cleaning” massive “for about six months. We have new staff, new websites and new tasks.

I work in Marketing / Email Service departments, where I have specific tasks and responsibilities, but I often take several new tasks. I began to wonder if my productivity was affected by the amount and variety of tasks he was working within the same day. This uncertainty, result in my application to implement the use of time sheets to my boss. At the previous races, which had experienced the use of time-sheets and clocks of time and quickly remember as a sense of efficiency as well as the commitment was from this practice. I printed a weekly calendar with slots. Each time you switch between my tasks documented.

I’m often multitasking? elimination of spam and the updating of paper work at the same time. I was surprised that my little squares for each block of one hour could not hold my description of the tasks from being completed. Often, the lunches were consumed in updating the mailing list or proofreading new copy for our new website. In my work, I expect to stay on top of market trends and ideas? but in my in-box I have a folder just 180 newsletters and unread articles.
