Yes you need to make sure that the tasks you delegate to your employees are things they actually know how to do. And if not, you need to teach them.

By the way, has anyone found that having lots of close friends is just, well, too much WORK? You can't ever do anything on your own, you always have to think of others. Go to a movie by yourself - "Oh I was waiting to see that with you!". Go to that new bar -"You should have called me! I would have gone with you!".…

Oh definitely! The only friends my wife and I have are the parents of our son's classmates. And the only time we really hang out with them is at school events or the kid's sporting events.

Thanks, I didn't know that.

All terminals at DFW are linked by a train called 'Skylink'. It's all behind security.

If Gmail would let me sort by sender, this would be a lot easier.

I use sort to help mass-delete emails. For example I sort by sender to get all the A's together. Then I can scan down the 100's of emails with Advantage car rental, Ace hardware, AAA Autoclub, etc. There may be one or two that I want to keep (electronic receipts and such) but then I can delete all the rest (from…

OK, I'll be more specific.

10 days? That's a bit excessive in the middle of a school year.
