[quote=Anonymous]I'm a technical grunt and don't have someone to maintain my calendar for me.  When someone makes an appt/meeting for me, I got to my calendar and put in a quick placeholder note on my calendar.  It takes all of about 5 seconds to do.  If I get an official meeting invite, when I confirm, I cancel the placeholder.  I check my calendar most afternoons for the next 2-3 days so that I can get an idea when I have something coming up and whether I have a meeting to prep for.  If I see a placeholder but not meeting, I send a note to the meeting organizer and explain that I haven't got an invite with the call-in/meeting link.

I also put placeholder notes for myself for things that need to be done.  For example, if I have to do work that someone is waiting for output from me, if it is not something I need to do immediately, I put in a placeholder a few days in advance to remind me to do whatever I need to do.  Short things like "Form for John Doe"  "Run scan, output to Larla" "Coordinate pickup with Sam", etc.  Most of the time I see these placeholders sometime on Monday and I try to figure out when during the week I'll squeeze these things in.[/quote]
