First go in all the credit cards, key cards, loyalty cards and coffee cards I use often, and the papers I carry with me. Behind the right hand secretarial pocket is a precious card someone send me recently

My translation hours. I work an 8 hour day and then I work between 4 and 5 hours translating. I don’t translate on Fridays because I teach for very long hours and my brain is unable to function. I keep a record of what I am translating for each person and how many hours I work on each project. I also make notes of who contacted me and what is on the to do lists they have for me. This avoids too many people giving me too much work because they don’t know what else I am working on.

I have a map which I use to help brief people for trips abroad or meetings they may have where they need to know where everyone comes from.

Bookings schedule. Friday is washi’d out because I teach from early to late and am so exhausted I cannot take on any translation or extra teaching that day
