Chapter 15 Put it to Work

There are many things that Angelica could have done differently to ensure a smooth and uneventful travel for Ms. Perez.

Angelica should have started out by making a list of things that she needed to accomplish before Ms. Perez left for her trip. This would include setting up the rental car arrangements as well as very through instructions on the time and place of the rental car agency. Angelica should have also printed out direction to the hotels as well as other destinations on Ms. Perez’s trip. She should have also typed up and printed out a time schedule of Ms. Perez’s meetings so that there was no confusion.

Angelicas job was not done as soon as Ms. Perez left for this trip. While she was out Angelica should have redistributed work if possible or organize the work on her desk so she doesn’t come back to work with such a mess. It is also important that Angelica forwards calls so that no questions or concerns go unanswered for such a long period of time.

Employees have access to not only important company information but also coworkers personal information. It is extremely important that every employees follows the confidentiality rules put into place, they are there to make sure private information stays private and so the company or employees arent hurt in the process. It is important that salary stays private and only between the managers and the employee. Others feeling can get hurt if they find out a coworker is making more than them.

Genuine Products Group Review.

Group projects can always be a challenge when it comes to getting everyone involved. I was very surprised through out this project by the hard work of my group members. All three of us completed our parts of the project on time. Although I was worried a few times with communication in the google groups chat aspect of this we still managed to discuss everything in class and we all worked very well together. I enjoyed this project and I think we did an awesome job.

Manage Electronic Records

Chapter 12 #4

Usually when I am on the computer working on an assignment I quickly save it to my desktop with a very vague name that I know I wont remember in a few days. This chapter has really helped me understand the importance of organizing my files on my computer. I went through and deleted all my unwated documents and organized the remaining ones into folders so i could easily acsess them. I think what helped me the most was organizing my pictures. I had all of them in one folder and out of date. I went through them all and deleted the unwated ones and organized the others by date. I feel better knowing my computer is in order and i can find documents I need much easier.
