I couldn't launch this--but then it could be "user error" -- I am still trying to learn the new-fangled gadgets on PF myself...

Yeah... I got the sound, but no video. (That would be disastrous for a porn site.) :biggrin:

Well, I patiently waited for all 14.4 Mb to download on my dial-up connection. Hee hee...it was worth it! :rofl:

I don't even know what the hell I was trying to launch it with. There was no name on it. I wasn't Quicktime or Media Player or Realtime... what else is there?

It was Quicktime. Maybe it's not compatible with older versions? It's a HUGE file (for me to download on dial-up anyway), so you might have just run out of memory for it.

Oh, but that is weird. I've got QT on here and that's not what came up on my screen, unless it's some kind of subroutine that doesn't announce itself. As for the file, it took 2 or 3 minutes to load, but it was only 14.? meg. It was all in there, just the picture part wouldn't come back out. I couldn't quite figure out why it was so slow loading though. My progress bar said it was only coming in at 160 kb/sec. :grumpy:
 

1. What is the best way to delegate tasks in the office?

The best approach to delegating tasks in the office is to assign tasks based on each employee's strengths and expertise. This will ensure that tasks are completed efficiently and effectively, maximizing productivity in the office. It's also important to clearly communicate expectations and deadlines when delegating tasks.

2. How often should team meetings be held in the office?

Team meetings should be held regularly, ideally on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. This allows for open communication, updates on projects, and addressing any issues or concerns. It's important to have a consistent schedule for team meetings to ensure that all team members are on the same page and working towards the same goals.

3. What is the best way to handle conflicts in the office?

The best way to handle conflicts in the office is to address them promptly and directly. Encourage open communication and active listening between team members to find a resolution. If needed, involve a neutral third party, such as a manager or HR representative, to mediate the conflict. It's important to address conflicts in a professional and respectful manner to maintain a positive work environment.

4. How can we improve office communication?

There are several ways to improve office communication. Implementing regular team meetings, using a communication platform such as Slack or Microsoft Teams, and promoting an open-door policy can all help improve communication within the office. It's also important to encourage feedback and actively listen to employees to address any communication issues that may arise.

5. What is the best approach to managing employee workload?

The best approach to managing employee workload is to prioritize tasks and delegate accordingly. Encourage employees to communicate their workload and any potential issues or concerns. This allows for a better understanding of each employee's workload and prevents burnout or overload. It's also important to regularly review and adjust workload as needed to ensure a healthy work-life balance for employees.
