Stop repeating yourself.

Welcome to your first day. I'm Jordan, your point person. Start here at the team table: we'll meet your buddy, walk the studio, and get your workstation ready. You won't handle a client request alone today. Watch your buddy first, then try one together. If you're unsure, stop and ask. We'll check in again after lunch.

See a spill in the walkway? Stop and keep people away. Tell your supervisor, then follow your workplace procedure to block off the area before anyone walks through. Use a clear alternative route. Don't step over the spill or move the barrier. Keep the area closed until the hazard is corrected and the walkway is safe.

This is how we handle a price objection. Customer: Your IT support costs more than our other quote. Representative: Does that quote include onsite visits, or remote support only? Customer: Remote only. Representative: Then let's compare our remote plan first. If you need someone onsite, I'll explain exactly when visits are included. Clarify the need before defending the price.

Before erasing a shared whiteboard, ask the meeting owner whether the notes need saving. Once they confirm, erase the board from top to bottom using the felt eraser. Put the eraser and markers back in the tray. Then check the whole board from the doorway. Leave a clear surface, ready for the next meeting.
