Computer related:

  • Don’t be your family computer savy guy, you just found yourself a bunch payless jobs…
  • Long desks are cool and all, but the amount the space they occupy is not worth it.
  • Block work related phone calls at weekends, being disturbed at your leisure for things that could be resolved on Mondays will sour your day.

Buying stuff:

  • There is expensive because of brand and expensive because of material quality, do your research.
  • Bulk buying is underrated, save yourself a few bucks, pile that toilet paper until the ceiling is you must.
  • Second hand/broken often means never cleaned, lubricated or with easy fixable problem.

      This. Rather than try to demand behaviour change, find ways to change the environment.

      A employee who is notoriously late won’t suddenly fix their behavior. Instead, schedule for them to arrive 15 mins earlier to “help out”. If they come earlier, great! If they’re late… They’re less late than average.

      Or just fire them.
