A pen and paper, for work.

You know those people who seem useless and forgetful all the time? They don't write anything down so they are lost when they try to do things and too embarrassed to ask for advice again because they forgot what you told them. You also end up repeating stuff to them over and over again when they just don't do a task or mess it up.

Don't be that person, write stuff down!

    I did this! I started a job that had a lot of little details to keep up with, so I started writing down everything any one told me

    Some people will get mad at you, though. It almost seems like an insult to some that you cannot remember everything they say verbatim
