Welcome to Manor Tools and Career Tools.

Today we've got the second half of our guidance on systemic career

documentation.

I'm just going to say it again, guys, you got to have your ducks in a row.

You got to keep your powder dry because you never know.

Despite even if you're a good performer, and in light of COVID-19, I think we can safely assume that unfortunately

the axe will cut deeper than it ever has before.

This is the worst economic event I've ever seen in my nearly 60 years.

And so we need to keep our powder dry and have our ducks in a row and all those other

aphorisms to make sure that we can take care of our families if for some reason we end up unemployed. So here we go part two. Okay, so then once you have this document and initially it's going to take a little bit of time, then you need to keep it updated.

And so how do we do that? Yeah.

Assuming for your present job, you've got the responsibilities paragraph pretty good.

And folks, look, your present job, from now on, you know, I know most of you're thinking oh gosh

career management document I've got to go back in my past I don't have good stuff okay

we're assuming right now that in your current job you actually know what your

responsibility yeah I mean we are assuming that in your sitting there thinking gosh you know I got to go back and I got to dredge up all

this old stuff and you know if you're Mike and I's age you got 30 years of the stuff

and remember something you don't want to be having the same thought five years from now about the previous five years.

Maybe you can't go back and make your history perfect. You can make it pretty good, and you'll make it good enough to deliver to a one-page

resume when you need it. And it's true, right? If you're 30 years into your

career, the last five years of what you did is more important than the previous

25, right?
