Memorandum
To: Administrative Assistant
From: The Boss
Date: Today
Subject: Arrange My Schedule
Notes: Our location is here in Pasadena; we have 30 employees including you and me; our work day is 9:00 – 5:00
Please, arrange my schedule for the following week. I have many tasks, meetings, and business that must be carefully slated to precise times. Please be aware of travel time to and from engagements. Also, allow me appropriate time for lunch and a suitable break now and then. Arrange the following into a workable schedule.
1. Sometime early during the week, I need to meet with my employees to deliver a 1-1/2-hour motivational speech. Following the speech, I will allow for a question/answer session not to exceed 30 minutes.
2. I have out-of-town colleagues arriving for a meeting Thursday @ 10:00 AM. I estimate we will be done by 2:00 PM. *Schedule a 1-hour lunch for us.
3. It would be nice to have a company breakfast at a nearby restaurant for all employees either Monday or Friday. It should not exceed 1 hour.
4. I have a doctor appointment in Baytown on Wednesday from 3:00-4:30.
5. During the week, I need 3 uninterrupted periods of 2-hours during which I work in my office.
6. On Tuesday, I will not arrive to work until 12-noon, due to personal business.
7. I will be key-note speaker at a fundraiser at The George R. Brown convention center Friday at 1:00. I should be able to head back by 3:00, but this is not certain. Please, account for heavy lunchtime traffic to the event.
8. On Thursday or early Friday, I will need a 2-hour slot during which I must audit and approve payroll.
9. Wednesday morning, my immediate supervisor arrives at Hobby Airport at 10:00 AM. I must be there to pick her up and return here, and I will be with her until she leaves. She will travel alone to the airport for her 3 PM return flight.
10. A group of school children will be visiting us here for a field trip on Monday from 11:00- 12-noon. I would like to greet them for about 15 minutes during their visit.
11. Schedule a 2-hour meeting sometime on Thursday, during which I will discuss business with my supervisors only.
12. During the week, I have 4 employees with whom I need to meet individually to discuss different business. Each meeting will take no more than 1-hour. The 4 employees are Paul, Gene, Ace, and Peter.
13. An employee (Sandra’s) birthday is Friday. Allow 30-minutes all employees and me to share a quick recognition with cake.
14. Schedule me time for 2 individual 1-hour interviews with 2 potential new employees. They will meet at our scheduled time.
15. Label all unscheduled time “Office”.
Thank you in advance. Call me with any questions or concerns
It is incredible how, over a relatively short time, the modern workforce and work environment has changed. What we considered “normal” just ten years ago is very different. What many occupations looked like fifty years ago has changed beyond recognition.

Take a look at these two images. These are two boardrooms, obviously from two very different periods in time. These images illustrate very drastic evolution in the workplace.
Brainstorm and search the Internet for examples of how far the modern workplace has evolved.
Using your own insight as well as what you brainstormed and discovered online, create aone-page visual/written display that focus on what you feel are the most important changes. Give thoughtful written explanations for what you have discovered.
Important: Make sure any images you use are “copyright free”. You can locate these by typing ‘copyright free image’ before the word you search for. For example, to locate the images above, I searched for “copyright free image boardroom”.
Part 4
My philosophy regarding vocabulary is this: We forget half of the terms we learn. However, if we remember the other half, then we are that much more knowledgeable. I have chosen the following terms and phrases from a much longer list. I chose the terms and phrases that I believe most students are more likely to encounter. Having a strong vocabulary makes us better writers, readers, speakers, and listeners.
1. Identify and write a succinct definition of each of the following terms and phrases.
2. Once you have a solid definition of each word or phrase, attempt to find use of the word or phrase (or as close as you can find to the exact usage) online, in a real-world example. Copy-and-paste that example, along with the URL where you found it and the date you found it.
3. Having defined the words and phrases and then found them used in actual discourse, you should have good ideas of the meanings. Finally, compose one sentence for each, in your own words, explaining your understanding of the meanings.
