What sort of time management system do you use

time

System and network administrators are usually very busy people. Juggling projects, meetings, support tickets, and verbal requests from people in the hallways can make a real mess. We've discussed some request tracking systems here in the past, but what other methods or tools do you use to manage your time to be more effective?

Thomas Limoncelli's book, Time Management for System Administrators, has some great ideas, but what works and doesn't work for you in the real world?

Best Answer

Getting things done.

Good use of a ticket system.

Good use of comprehensive documentation (wiki) on system configuration, network, etc that is always up to date (so I never have to research anything)
