I was taught the "Smith System" some 50 years ago. It has stuck with me over the years and I catch myself not using it sometimes and have to give me a big whack across the rear.

I sat in my truck about a month ago, and had to write down my time sheet, when I signed out. I even found all my delivery sheets each stop, and town, but could not remember going anywhere, to any of them.
