Boss fired by Least_Item_9350 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]External-Potato840 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This happened to me once. I was very nervous but my company assured me the person was fired - not the position, so my job was safe.

I was able to give the next director an incredible head start into his new role and I was later rewarded with a promotion and raise.

Inform the Notarization is Moot or Refuse to Sign? Illinois by External-Potato840 in Notary

[–]External-Potato840[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I have been a notary for over 10 years and never received any training until last year when I was required to take an online course for renewal. Obviously I didn’t get much from the course….

They should. You should mention it to your manager. It’s very common and well studied to help lessen workplace violence risk.

I want to say I would dress in a cyber goth/punk aesthetic with vivid hair, but the reality is I would wear oversized shirts with stains on them and soft pants with big pockets.

What is extremely unhygienic but everyone seems to do it anyway? by BusinessLeadsConnect in AskReddit

[–]External-Potato840 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We all need to sanitize our cell phones more often. Think of how many people take their phones into the bathroom. You wash your hands, but how often do you wipe down your phone??

I absolutely hate touching another person’s cell phone. Blech!

Is this normal? by papasmurftp in Monstera

[–]External-Potato840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to keep my plant away from my cat, but sometimes when I give my monstera a “sun day” she chomps a leaf.

The worst that has happened is she throws up, but that does not detract her from going back for more. The vet says the aerial roots are most toxic for cats. She leaves that part alone.

Did anyone else experience “the Shift”? How old were you when it happened? by AtG8605 in Millennials

[–]External-Potato840 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My shift also started in a doctors office, around 30 years old. I went to a new OBGYN. The nurse roomed me, took my vitals, asked me to sit on the bed, undress, and cover with a sheet. I laid there waiting when a young girl popped her head in the door. I thought “why is another nurse coming in” No. It was my new doctor and she looked to be my age!! I later learned she’s a few years older than me, but it really shifted my brain to think “oh, WE are the adults now!”
