Open Office and Co-worker Etiquette - The Muse

Open Office and Co-worker Etiquette - The MuseOpen Office and Co-worker Etiquette Open floor plans have become all the rage these days, with employees sitting at tables across from one another instead of being trapped in cubicles. And while there are many advantages to have your team co-existing in the same space, there can also be some downsides to the constant interaction. Namely, distractions.Ever wondered if youre bothering the people next to you or the rolle across the table from you at your job? Well, if youre doing any of these five things, the answer is probably yes.1. Spreading Out Too MuchBetween the photos of your family and your mountain of pens, its easy to accidentally get a little too comfortable at your desk and invade the space of others around you. One of the few great things about working in a cubicle is that there are boundaries to show you where your space is and isnt. In an open office environment that consists of just tables, that luxury doesnt exist, and its e asy to become that person whose stuff ends up all over the table instead of in a confined space.The solution? Keep your desk light, and make sure you talk boundaries with the people next to you and across from you.2. Being a SlobSimilarly, the lack of cubicle walls means your mess is out there for the world to see. I once worked a temporary office job where the woman who sat next to me constantly left her lunch plates and coffee mugs out for days after using them. It sounds like a small thing, but its definitely something that grosses most people out.When it comes to this tip, remember that there is a difference between cleanliness and clutter Most people are aware that your desk will probably be filled with papers and other work-related items, but they wont be too happy with that moldy Chipotle burrito bowl thats been sitting on your desk for two weeks.Moral of the story? Be neat, and clean up after yourself regularly. No excuses.3. Talking Loudly in Person or on the PhoneI persona lly think that this is a no-brainer, but Ive been in so many situations where people have taken phone calls at their desks and proceeded to loudly talk with a family member, friend, or client for upwards of 30-40 minutes. Or, even worse two co-workers spending an hour gossiping about another. Can you say yikes?If youre working in an open office, definitely see if theres a designated conference room or phone booth where you can take calls or chat with others. If there isnt one, leave a note on your desk telling people where you are, and step outside the office to talk or take the call.Its just the nice thing to do.4. Distracting OthersIt can be nice working right next to work friends or other people on your team you can quickly lean over and ask questions, have impromptu brainstorming sessions, and cut out the need for too many meetings (after all, youre basically meeting all the time). But be considerate that you and your team actually need time to focus in order to do the work your e trying to get done. As a general rule, only interrupt someone sitting next to you or across from you if its time-sensitive, and wait for other times (like lunch or a designated check-in) to socialize or ask tiny, non-urgent questions.5. Being Passive AggressiveAre there things about your co-workers office habits that annoy you, too? Mark my words Dont be passive aggressive about them. One of my favorite examples of this is when one colleague of mine would leave her coffee cup in my other co-workers table workspace, so that second co-worker would always put it in the trash can. Eventually, they got mora and more annoyed with each other, and their issues became about more than just coffee cups. If someone had just said something, the problem probably wouldve been easily fixed.Scared to tell a colleague how you feel? Remember that you dont have to be rude when talking about an issue- a polite, Hey, would you mind usually does the trick. At the end of the day, surviving (and thriving) in an open workspace is about understanding the nuances that come with being next to other people all the time. Be considerate, think about how youre treating others, and definitely dont leave your lunch out for more than a day. Trust me on that last one. Photo of people working courtesy of Shutterstock.

I hunted down an 89-year-old book Elon Musk recommended

I hunted down an 89-year-old book Elon Musk recommendedI hunted down an 89-year-old book Elon Musk recommendedIn July 2016,TeslaandSpaceXCEOElon Muskrevealeuchtdiode that he welches reading alargely forgotten 1929 bestseller William Bolithos Twelve Against the Gods.The 89-year-old book delves into the lives of 12 famous - and infamous - historical adventurers, malcontents, and non-conformists.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moreMusks endorsement sparked a bit of a frenzied search forcopiesof the out-of-print non-fiction book. At one point, the work welches listed on Amazon for a not-at-all intimidating price of $575.Well, just recently, Twelve Against the Gods welches re-released. History buffs can now purchase it onAmazonfor $12.78.But back in 2016, I didnt have that option. I volunteered to find and read Twelve Against the Gods becauseI like historyand old books. The epic title didnt hurt either - to me, Twelve Against the Gods sounds kind of like a Hellenistic blockbuster.I had to do quite a bit of digging before I could get my hands on the rare text. Everywhere I looked online, Twelve Against the Gods welches either astronomically expensive or unavailable.Just when I was beginning to suspect that the book itself might not actually exist, it turned up in my local library system.I was put on the waitlist and, about a month later, finally obtained Bolithos account of the lives of 12 wanderers.The copy I read was old, with a scuffed, dark red cover and yellowing pages. (Its got that sweet old book smell, too.) I was careful to keep it away from the sand when I began to read it on the beach one cold, windy weekend.The book profiles the lives of unconventional historical figuresEach chapter paints a portrait of a historical figure that smacked convention in the face through war, exploration, political intrigue, romance, or all of the above. Subjects include b ig names like Alexander the Great, Christopher Columbus, Giacomo Casanova, the Prophet Muhammad,Napoleon I, Isadora Duncan, and Woodrow Wilson, as well as slightly less famous characters like Lola Montez, Alessandro Cagliostro and Lorenza Seraphina Feliciani, Charles XII of Sweden, Lucius Sergius Catilina (also known as Catiline), and Napoleon III.Beginning with Bolithos proto-adventurer Alexander the Great and his destructive sweep eastward, each of the twelve follows a similar, often tragic, arc. They display promise and make their mark on history in a spectacular fashion, only to eventually succumb to hubris or circumstances.The biographies must have been considered pretty edgy at the time. Bolitho shines the punktlicht on his subjects often unusual life choices and colorful antics, noting that true adventure is rarely chaste, or merciful, or even law abiding at all, and any moral peptonizing, or sugaring, takes out the interest, with the truth, of their lives.I especially enjoye d the chapters focusing on the less famous figures. I had never even heard of Lola Montez, the mistress of a Bavarian king who pushed for liberal reforms until she was forced to flee Europe altogether Cagliostro and Seraphina, a couple known for everything from occult rituals to an infamous scandal involving Marie Antoinettes diamond necklace or Charles XII of Sweden, a saint of adventure who emulated Alexander the Great and led an initially successful, but ultimately fatal, march on Moscow.Keep in mind, the book is often super dated, historically and culturally problematic, and riddled with offensive and cringeworthy nuggets (with the woman-adventurer all is love or hate her adventure his man her type is not the prospector, but the courtesan - yikes), but given its publication date, none of that is exactly surprising.Ultimately, one of the books most intriguing characters isnotone of the twelve.Just like Musk, the books author had roots in South Africa. Charles William Ryall - wh o went by Bill and later adopted the pen name William Bolitho to avoid confusion with the sportswriter George Ryall - was born in England. His father was a Baptist minister who moved the family to Cape Town, South Africa when Bolitho was young.The author led an unconventional life himselfFascinated by Bolitho, I called up China Ryall, Bolithos daughter. He died when she was just two years old, but she has spent years digging into her fathers legacy.He led a wild life, not unlike his adventuring subjects.Ryall found that Bolitho originally wanted to follow in his fathers pastoral footsteps, entering a seminary and becoming an Anglican deacon as a young man. But history intervened, and Bolitho enlisted to serve in WWI. The experience changed his life.The legend is he went off to war and then sort of lost his interest in God, Ryall told geschftliches miteinander Insider. He saw all the mayhem in the trenches.Bolitho was badly wounded andburied alivein the 1916 Battle of the Somme. He was taken to a hospital in Scotland to recover where, according to Ryall, a group of poets befriended him and encouraged him to become a writer.He became a reporter for the Manchester Guardian - now known as the Guardian. Later, he took a job with the now-defunct New York World. Bolitho rubbed shoulders with the influential literarti group, the Algonquin Round Table, in the 1920s. Over the course of his career, Bolitho also befriended the likes of Ernest Hemingway, Noel Coward, and Walter Lippmann.Bolitho reported on fascist dictator Benito Mussolinis rise to power in Italy, wrote a book called Murder for Profit about infamous killers, and published Camera Obscura, a collection of his essays. Bolitho turned out pieces on everything from the saxophone to stamp collectors to the gangsters of Chicago.He just had this enormous curiosity, Ryall said. He wrote about anything that interested him. He wrote about anything and everything.Like many of his 12, Bolitho didnt have much time to s avor his success. Just a year after achieving enormous recognition with Twelve Against the Gods, Bolitho died of appendicitis while in France. He was only 39.Theres still space in the world for adventurers to break new groundRyall has a good idea of some of the present-day adventurers fit to be added to a modern update of the book.

He doesnt lead quite a pure life.Ryall also said that Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa, who Musk promised to take to themoon, and the late chef and journalist Anthony Bourdain, would also qualify as adventurers.All in all, Twelve Against the Gods provides an interesting perspective on what drove and impeded this group of adventurers. Its a good read for anyone whos interested in h istory or looking to find some motivation to switch things up and break the rules. Although, take everything with a grain of salt - dont get yourself so hyped up that you declare yourself a god and try to conquer everything from Greece to India.As is the case with many histories, the book often reveals more about the author than its historical subjects. Bolitho was quite a character himself, and might have become equally as famous as some of his dozen adventurers had he lived. Taking some time to read about his thoughts on promise, risk, and success is definitely worthwhile.You have to read the books in the context of the times in which they were written, Ryall told Business Insider.

Starting an Equine Transport Business

Starting an Equine Transport BusinessStarting an Equine Transport BusinessEquine transport geschftslebenes are responsible for safely shipping horses from one location to another. An entry level business can be started with just a single truck, trailer, and driver. This is a great solo business opportunity for an individual with solid horse skills and the ability to travel extensively. Form Your Business The first step when establishing your equine transportation business is to determine whether you will operate as a sole proprietorship, limited liability company (LLC), corporation, or partnership. There are tax and liability advantages associated with each schriftart of business, so you should consult an advisor to landsee what will work best for your business. You will also need to look into acquiring permits, licenses, special liability insurance policies, or any other documentation required by city, state, or local regulatory agencies. Define Your Service Area The next st ep is to decide whether you will offer transportation on a local, state, or national scale. Large-scale operators with many drivers often choose to offer national service, but smaller operators may choose to focus on a local area or a particular range consisting of a few hundred miles. You also want to be sure your base of operations is in an area where there is a high concentration of potential horse industry clients. Equine transporters can focus on shipping horses for racing, showing, sales, or breeding purposes. Purchase or Repurpose Equipment It is likely that those interested in starting an equine transport business will already own a truck, a trailer, or both. A new vehicle or trailer can be a significant expense for those without such equipment, but a reliable vehicle is critical for success in this business. Trailers can range from a simple 2-horse gooseneck to a large tractor-trailer that will accommodate a larger number of passengers. Create a Shipping Contract Eq uine transporters should have a standard contract that the horse owner must sign before a horse is shipped. It is advisable to have an attorney draw up your contract. You should also try to obtain other transport provider contracts from competitors to see what specific areas should be addressed. Contracts usually outline terms of service in great detail (including pickup and drop off locations, total distance to be traveled, the cost of transportation, and any liability or insurance concerns). Owners are also required to provide documentation that horses are up to date on all necessary vaccinations and tests (including a current Coggins test to allow interstate travel). Establish Service Fees Most equine transportation services base their fees on the distance traveled, the cost of fuel, the amount of space the horse will require (for instance, some owners prefer that their horses travel in a larger box stall rather than in a standard stall), and the number of horses being shippe d. It is wise to find out what other companies are charging for similar services, particularly in your local area. You need to be priced competitively within your market to attract and retain new customers. If there are many transportation companies in your area, you may want to identify and target a particular niche market (such as racing or show transportation) to build an initial customer base. Advertise Your vehicle and trailer should feature the contact information for your equine transport service and its logo. Magnets or professionally applied permanent lettering can be used for customization. Your truck and trailer act as a moving advertisement for your services and will be visible to potential customers when it is on the road or parked at shows, sales, and farms. You should also create a business card and service flyer to post at horse shows, race tracks, and other high traffic areas where those who might require transportation services will have a chance to see it. Rid ing instructors, racehorse trainers, farriers, and bloodstock agents may also be willing to refer clients to you, so it is important to reach out to as many equine professionals as possible when establishing your business. You should also consider placing ads in local publications, equine magazines, the yellow pages, on major equine websites, or on Craigslist. Print ads in show, racetrack or sales programs can also be a good source for prospects. Create a Schedule A schedule should be created and maintained to ensure that all shipping contracts are completed on time. It is wise to have your appointments accessible from a smartphone through an app or scheduling feature so you will be able to review your upcoming plans while traveling. You should also have a cell phone dedicated to your business and use that number for client interactions, as you will be spending a significant amount of time on the road.

They should be open to answering any questions or concerns youve been having - like plotting your next move or finding that waning career spark again.
