Leah and Elina Furman's Once again the New Year's upon us — and the pressure is on. How to make this year different? We've racked our brains for ten realistic goals, resolutions if you will, that are bound to improve our careers in the year to come. Here they are: Start lobbying for a secretary. Stop ordering unnecessary office supplies just to steal them later. Resist the temptation to raid co-workers' lunch bags. Demand a raise — when the boss is in the room this time. Turn the office into a mecca of motivation, complete with Susan Powter quotations, Tony Robbins posters, and a large, bronze bust of Deepak Chopra. No more using the company voice mail directory as a dating service. Quit picking nose at meetings. Steal the keys to executive bathroom. Beat Eric at Solitaire. Total world domination.
