Quiet or Busy?

This is the first week of Mr. Russell’s vacation and so I will be busy but not in a bad way. On Friday we sat down and went over all the assignments I’ll be working on while he is out – there is a lot of them.

  • business card input – I have about 200 cards that need to be typed into his contact database
  • SalesLogix software training – I’m hoping to get my training done this Thurs/Fri since Mr. Sutherland will also be on vacation those two days
  • File index list for Mr. Sutherland – he wants me to create an alphabetical list of ALL of his files (fortunately he only has one cabinet filled)
  • Call reports backlog – I have to type up a few dozen call reports (basically all the reports he has handwritten since April)
  • Market Assessment – I have to add data to a spreadsheet I created a few weeks ago
  • Begin inputting data into SalesLogix program
  • Create address book template when printing from Palm Desktop (don’t know if this is possible but I told him I’d try)
  • Load up Adobe software when it arrives and begin creation of new brochure to be finalized and printed before late September conference
  • Find out from Palm if I can get access to Tom’s Palm Desktop on my own computer rather than having to go into his office each time I have to input something
  • Travel for the September conference
  • Set up off-site meeting for day after Mr. Russell returns from vacation

    See? No rest for the weary while Boss Men are on vacation!

    In other work news, I was informed on Friday that my laptop arrived and they hope to get it set up and in my possession sometime this week. Woo hoo!!
