    Barry Mishkind wondered ...

> How many of you file a daily/weekly/monthly/occasional report to your
GM/Owner?

> 1. what is the best frequency you've found?

As a contractor/backup, every time I'm called out for anything.

> 2. what do you do to make sure they read it?

Wait for the reply, it's always there.

> 3. what range and level of detail do you cover?

Briefly, what was done, and if it's useful, the why. The why I'm there is
usually quite apparent.

> 4. what is the best story about their response?

I happen to know the GM, and we go back a long way, so I occasionally give
some information in great technical detail with digital photos, then the
next time we visit face to face, we laugh about it as I know he has no
technical knowledge and he knows that I know that, but he also knows that I
tell him the straight story and am not trying to baffle him with BS.

> 5. what is the distribution: solely the GM, or to the PD?

GM, Ops Manager, Business manager, and of course the CE that I'm either
covering for or assisting. Then a BCC to myself.
