Hi, im_anna! Thanks for this comprehensive guide. Hmmm... sounds like my boss! :) Would you believe we have a 6-month workplan detailing each major task's step-by-step activities? We go through the trouble of preparing that and ticking off or adjusting every once in a while, but it does help. Like now, I just did my performance evaluation self-assessment and it did help me detail my accomplishments. Well, the backlog was also glaring, though! Thanks, I will probably keep your tip nearby at work. cheers!
