Get the most our of your working day
Jane Peyton's time-saving tips will change your life
Another day at work, but what is different about today? Your new time saving tricks, that's what.
Do you want to get the most out of your working day? Here's how to do it. If you can bear to wake up that little bit earlier and be at your desk before anyone else in the office, you can use the quiet time to deal with emails and any other administration before the phone starts ringing and colleagues drop by for a chat about the X-factor.
Combine exercise with your daily commute by cycling to work. While you're at it, you can pick up your lunch on the way in - there will be fewer queues and a wider choice.
At the risk of being anti-social, impose part-time purdah on yourself and resist the urge to gossip with co-workers. You could even go so far as to buy a kettle and a stash of tea and coffee to keep on your desk to avoid those time-consuming walks to the kitchen where temptation lurks in the guise of long conversations with people at the water cooler.
However, when you have met Siri you won't actually want any friends at work because she will be your everything. Siri is a voice-controlled app for iPhone 4S that converts words to text. so get talking and siri will send emails and texts, search the internet, make appointments, and perform myriad other essential tasks
But how are you to spend all that time you are saving? Planning your next holiday of course!
