I'm looking for an app that's easy to use for taking notes during meetings, etc. Evernote seems to be a favorite among some of the other admins in my company. Do you use it or do you like another app better?

I've just started using Obsidian and like it so far. Also, it's fully free for personal use.

If you use it, I find that Microsoft teams has inbuilt capacity for almost every need. I don't use it as comprehensively as I should but perhaps you can take a look through it.

I used Evernote for years and then they started cutting back on the features for the free version so it just became unusable. If I just want to type down some notes I usually just start a Google Doc and type away. I generally follow a convention of file naming which includes the date so I can find things easily. Plus, you can just search your Google Drive and find things fairly quickly. Google Keep is also free and has some nice features, but Docs is probably better for typing out anything substantial.

I have never used Evernote but I think I am going to give this a try. I have actually been looking for something that I can use to take notes and it seems like everyone has really good thigns to say about this one

I have a couple of questions for ZS fishes-

1. Is it possible to turn down a promotion at ZS? I'm currently happy with my responsibilities as a Decision Analytics Consultant and don't want any added responsibilities in the near future (next 5 years)

2. Is it possible to shape up a career path in the BC stream which doesn't involve business development? I don't want to get into working on SOWs and RFPs.

As long as I’m clear about my role is that acceptable?

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
