NOW HERE’S A TIP
By JoAnn Derson
* If your dog likes a treat of moistened dry food from time to time, use the water from cooking vegetables. It has a bit of fl avor and some vitamins, too! * “A tip for banana peels: Dry until crispy and break into small pieces. Put in blender and blend to powder. Store in an airtight container to sprinkle around base of houseplants before watering. Orchids love them -- it’s great free fertilizer.” -- B.C. in New Hampshire * “Unmatched socks are handydandy cleaners and have so many uses. Keep one by the dryer to get all the lint off the trap. Shake it out or pop it into the wash when needed. * If you have lots of outdoor or feral cats in your area, here is some good advice, given to me by my grandmother: Start your car with a bang -- on the hood, that is. When the overnight temperature dips, cats know to fi nd someplace that is wind-shielded and off the ground, and sometimes that means they will climb up into your engine area to hunker down. If your car starts while they’re there, they can be hurt or even killed. Give the hood a good knock to let a cat know to get out quick. -- JoAnn * “After you’ve cleaned out the gliders of your sliding-glass door, run over the parts with a little paraffi n wax. It will protect the moving parts and quiet the door.” -- P.J. in Oregon * If you have trouble threading a needle because the fi bers seem to go in all directions, here’s a tip from T.I. in Illinois: Stiffen the end of thread with hairspray before threading a needle. CHALLENGES OF GOING REMOTE WITH YOUR BUSINESS
CUSTOMER SERVICE: Ensuring customers can seamlessly connect with your business, and your customer service staff in particular, should be a priority when switching to a remote work setting. Remote customer service employees won’t have the direct access to management and fellow team members that they had when working on-site, so business owners can employ central management platforms that make it easy to access information regarding new products and services and previous interactions with and responses to customers. That access can help solve issues while reducing the likelihood of substantial lag time as customer service employees wait to hear from coworkers and managers about how to respond to certain issues.
