Brosix and Looking Busy

Even the New York Times has come to terms with the fact that in these hard economic times, looking busy can help you to keep your bosses good graces, and your job. While a lot of people are reshuffling papers, or leaving out thick file folders one can’t help but wonder how long it will take until your boss sees through that act and catches on to the charade. Say, when its time for you to give in a monthly report.

It would be a much better use of that fake busy time to actually add to your personal value, and to prove that you are an asset and not a faker. It got me thinking how Brosix can help you to do just that. Imagine being able to add some of these to your list of monthly accomplishments.

1. Provided secure online technical support to customers online on demand. (IM’s, Cooperative Internet Browsing)

2. Conducted a e-training seminar for staff members all over the world, with a real time question and answer session at zero cost to the organization. (Voice chat)

3. Provided real time updates on project status to senior managers with visual accompaniments. (File transfer and screen shots)

4. Ensured that project team received all forgotten data in Santa Fe before presentation to clients. (File Transfer)

That kind of value added could actually keep your job, instead of making your boss feel angry and betrayed when the truth of your busywork comes to light.
