I was trying for 10, but couldn't come up with others, please chime in if you have any suggestions;

In no particular order:

1. Proofread or at least double check the document before printing!
2. Print double sided (duh!)
3. Check to see if you can print in a draft form, many times this is just as good as higher quality
4. Don't make extra copies unless needed
5. Email the document, if you don't want people to be able to edit it, turn it into a pdf
6. If you are using a color printer, see if your printer has the option to dectect color.  If it does, use it on your color documents that are mixed with black and white pages.
7. If your last page of printing is short, try adjusting the format or margins to condense the document

Ok, these are ways to impress my boss.  They may or may not work to impress yours.  If you have different ways to impress a boss, why not share and post below!

5.  Arrive early to work.  My boss likes that, it earns brownie points.  Plus he has a personal pet peeve about being late.

4. Don't complain about situations, bring him solutions to obstacles.  (He is big into looking at things with a proactive view)

3. Do not gossip.  (Enough said)

2. Listen.  (Listen and undestand instructions so you don't have to be told twice and that you actually understand a situation or instructions.)

1. Do something extra without being asked to. This is number one!  What about yours?

I hate to say it, but posting a blog on Deskdemon isn't in the top , but here I am on a Sunday posting!

5. Not rush all day! (not really a "thing" but wll include it)

4. Early morning walks with my dog.

3. Peaceful laps in the pool.

2. Sunday sports with friends!

1.  Sunday dinner with my two kids (both have moved out)
