《Kick-ass Career Guide for Women》Keep important emails
Advertisement
One way to track down some important conversations is via email. If there is any email conversation specifying tasks, challenges, conflicts, or other issues, these types of emails are worth keeping.
Why? They can serve as proof or documentation, in case the tables turn. You never know when there's a situation where you need to pull out an email as proof to support your cause.
Situations can include but are not limited to:
- When a colleague claims she or he never received a task specification or other communication from you.
- When you received the green light to go ahead with a project, however, someone claims that it was never approved. This also includes financial approval.
- When a colleague claims that she or he never expressed a particular statement.
- When a colleague makes a comment, but contradicts himself or herself at a later stage to avoid blame.
Unfortunately, the world is not a bed of roses. People lie to protect themselves. People forget promises or commitments that they have made. When an awkward situation arises and you need to refer to the facts, you'll thank yourself for not throwing out that specific email.
On another note, we all make mistakes. Sometimes, it is us who remembered the facts incorrectly. Therefore, this gives us another good reason to keep important emails if we need to do some fact-checking. It's important to maintain our integrity at work.
On the positive side, you should try to keep that one golden email from a work buddy, customer, or manager who praised you for the good work you've done for the company. Don't throw these ones out. Remind yourself how valuable you are. You are worth more than you think.
A/N: When I refer to a colleague, I also refer to managers and supervisors. I tend to have comfortable dialogue with everyone, regardless of their official roles. It comes with the experience of being a journalist, where I've interviewed politicians and high profile public figures. We are all people. The key is to treat each other with respect. ⭐️👍

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.

ARROGANCE | m.yg
❝Where there's music there can be love.❞ Ah Rin is an underground rapper going by the name Silver. If one word must be used to describe Silver, it's tough. She always speaks her mind and she's never afraid to say exactly what she means. As much as Rin loves being a rapper, it has its downsides. Few male rappers ever take her seriously, and people who do often wonder why a twenty-two-year-old girl isn't in college trying to further herself. Those who do recognize her talent will encourage her to join an entertainment company, but that's the worst comment of all, and she'll argue it for hours. One fateful day Rin is preparing for a music festival. As she's up on stage, she sees a sorely familiar face in the crowd. He once went by Gloss, but he doesn't anymore. In fact, he's hardly the same person now than he was then. And as much as Yoongi isn't Gloss, Rin isn't Silver either. ↻ KANGYOUNGHYUNS 2019 | 2/4 of the bangtan series
