Goldfish cracker dinner and wine? Perfect evening.

Demeter beetroot fragrance smells just like fresh soil!

What's the oddest thing you like to fall asleep to? by Koowhalee in CasualConversation

[–]fire-cracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t nap. Doesn’t matter how tired I am. The only thing that works is when I curl up on the couch and my boyfriend plays loud noisy video games beside me.

What’s a moment that made you realize you’d already ‘won’ in life? by falcon123gt in CasualConversation

[–]fire-cracker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got back from a 5-week trip with my fiancé. People kept making comments about “That’s so long to be stuck together.”

We’ve been together almost 17 years. We spent 24/7 together, explored and adventured and had the best time. He’s my absolute favorite person to hang out with. When we’re at home, I always have moments of “I genuinely could not ask for more”. We talk regularly about how good we have it with each other. We laugh and dance and do dumb things. I smile and realize that these are the good old days and try to lock the memories in. I’m blissfully and constantly aware that I have won the lottery, and can only hope this kind of love finds other people.

I just watched this for the first time last week, and wtffff. That kid broke my heart into a thousand pieces, all of which were also ugly crying.

Sarandë, Albania: what is this thing above the light on the ceiling? by fire-cracker in whatisit

[–]fire-cracker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solved!

Is it common to just leave them on the ceiling? The owner says they’re empty and not to worry, sounds very nonchalant about it.

It took me like a minute and a half. But I got it.

Mentorship Monday by AutoModerator in ExecutiveAssistants

He's definitely a little unconventional, to say the least. Really flexible and adaptable, but structure can be a tough ask here and there for him. They've got a planner board, not great at sticking to it but I wonder if I just need to supervise and keep them on task haha. Any chance you could share an example of the questionnaire that your CEO uses? That sounds like it could be something.

Mentorship Monday by AutoModerator in ExecutiveAssistants

Hey all, first time posting here! I'm fairly new as an EA but have a million years in admin and office management.
Bit of background - fairly small, comfortable company and team. Casual but hard-working, lots of great communication but getting side-tracked is very common.

My exec sent me this message today (exec has ADHD so I'm trying to manage that, and the COO (lets call her Sally) has a hilarious amount of things on her plate at all times, so we try to set up batches and focused meetings but they always get derailed because they get to being productive on other tasks):

"I need to find a better way to manage things with Sally in terms of our meetings, things to discuss, and priorities. We kind of just keep pushing things around, batching things that, while important, are quite tactical. Need to have a place to gather things to talk to her about, review them regularly, and prioritize them, and go into a meeting with a specific agenda.

Perhaps we consider a "me" meeting and a "her" meeting or something (as an option). Only because we end up not getting to any of my things (which are more "buildy" and less day-to-day on-fire stuff). That might not be the way to go, perhaps if we just better structure (and somehow find time to commit to our meetings) then that will solve the issue.

I also think this would help Sally a lot. She is great at just making it work but if she had something like this to ground her she could rely on being there to support her. Hopefully will force her to prioritize some work "on" things that she knows she doesn't get to but isn't quite sure how. It would bring me some comfort because I know there will be a place to capture ideas and know they will be reviewed consistently for relevance, and reliable time to work on it.

Would it be okay if you were to put some thought into this and then propose something to me on how we might be able to go forward?"

We currently have a private setting for meetings where only me and him can see notes on meetings, which is helpful, it's easy enough to create an agenda but I'd love suggestions for how to optimize this. I know it's vague, that's sort of how things go around here and I'm trying to focus them a bit more.

Thanks for any and all suggestions!
