Tip #11 (for iPhone, iPad users)  

Pressing the power and home button together on your Apple device creates a picture of your current screenshot.

Creating a screenshot of your screen on any iPone or iPad is as easy as a touch of a button.  Simply press your home screen and the power button at the same time and it creates a photo of your screen and saves it in your 'camera roll' on your phone.  You can easily send the photo to someone via a text message or email. This can also be helpful when someone is unable to open a certain type of file like .pdf or .xlsx.  By sending them a "picture" of the document open on your screen, they should be able to open it no matter what type of device they are working with.  If you are using an Android device, you can download an app called "Screenshot It" to get similar results.

Tip #12-16

• Visit Starbucks as often as possible during breaks to keep yourself refueled.
• Keep visqueen down as long as possible so that you won't stain the carpet when you spill your coffee.
• Use a backpack instead of a purse or nice laptop carrier/brief case.  No one wants to steal an ugly back pack!
• Bring works gloves.
• Bring a BIG black felt pen, preferably with your name or company logo on it because it will likely be "loaned" out.
