- No-one ever got to run the company on the first day of work.
You will have
to do many rubbish jobs on your way to success, taking the rubbish out teaches
you to distinguish the difference between trash and value.
- When you get to the top, take your own trash out.
Show your
employees that no job is beneath you. Stops them complaining.
- Be prepared to watch, listen and learn.
People have
made mistakes on their way to knowledge and they are often glad to show you how
to avoid them if you are polite and attentive.
- Someone will always say they can do it better.
Maybe they
can, ask them to show you; it will save you doing it.
- Listen to everything but shop floor gossip.
Only offer an
opinion when you truly understand the question.
- Read the instructions more than once.
Ask questions
of the author until you know what is required. Then proceed.
- You are not the only person capable of the job.
Don’t
give the boss an opportunity to try someone else.
- Don’t kiss arse on your first day.
No-one likes a
suck-up and you’ll be kissing up your entire career.
- Take your holidays every year.
You will
charge your batteries and people might miss you.
- Remember when dealing with mail to employ the T.R.A.F. principal.
T = Throw. Discard all junk mail and other rubbish
R
= Refer. Things
not intended for you, but for someone else. Pass them on immediately.
A = Action. Do these tasks immediately, only handle them
once.
F = File. File everything now. Again only handle
it once.
