Problem: Article: When the song begins and Miley is singing "boom boom clap, boom de clap de clap" just clap along in time with the music. The dancing doesn't start until the lyrics kick in. Are you ready? When Miley sings "pop it" extend your left arm out in front of you, at shoulder height, as far as it will go.  When she sings "lock it" drop down to your right, bending your knees. At the same time, hold your elbows out from your body - almost like you're pretending to have chicken wings! Now, on "polka dot it" shuffle to the left, taking two steps. As you shuffle, point the index finger on your right hand and waggle it from side to side, in time with your shuffling. Tuck your thumbs into your belt (real or imaginary) then on "country", point the heel of your right foot and on "fy", point the heel of your left. It helps to imagine you're wearing cowboy boots! Turn your body so you're facing slightly towards the left. On "hip" kick out with your right foot and cross your arms in front of you.  On "hop" pull your leg and arms back in, so you're standing up straight with your hands on your hips. On "it" bend your knees and hunch your shoulders forward, keeping your hands on your hips. When Miley says "put your hawk", step sideways with your right foot. As you step, cross your arms in front of you so your right hand is resting on your left elbow and your left hand is resting on your right elbow.  Then on "in the sky" lift your hands from your elbows (but keep your arms crossed) so your hands look like the wings of a bird. At the same time, kick your left foot out in front of you (when your hands are making the wing shape) then bring it back in to meet your right foot. Keeping your arms crossed in front of you, lean from side to side - first to the left, then to the right. On the word "jump", turn slightly to the right and scoop your left foot in front of you.  Jump off the ground and turn in the air, so that when you land on your left foot, you are facing slightly towards the left. On the word "left" place your right foot down on the ground, extended in front of your left. On the phrase "stick it", bring your left foot up to meet your right and stomp it down on the ground, firmly placing your hands at your sides.  On "glide", step your left foot backwards then glide your right foot along the floor to join it. As you glide, push your right arm out in front of you, away from your body.
Summary: Clap along. Pop it, lock it. Polka dot it. Countrify it. Hip-hop it. Put your hawk in the sky. Move side to side. Jump to the left. Stick it, glide.

Problem: Article: People will need to do your work while you're gone; you should make this as easy as possible for them, without overburdening any one person. The Harvard Business Review suggests you “prepare a list of your core responsibilities, dividing them into tasks that can be assumed by other and those that aren't so easy to delegate, such as client relationships.” Think about who in your organization might fill each role, and consider hiring someone to cover for you if necessary. This involves more than just telling the good news that you're pregnant. You'll also need to let them know the additional responsibilities they'll be taking on. This does not have to be a burden for them. Especially for subordinates, it can be an opportunity to take on new, higher-level responsibilities and to progress their career. You'll need to let your clients know that you will be stepping away, and also introduce them to the person who will be taking over for you in your absence. If you serve as the primary contact for anyone else – suppliers if you're a restaurant manager, for instance – you'll need to let them know your plans, too. The more you can tie-up before you leave, the less you will have to stress about while gone, and the easier the transition will be for your coworkers. It can be very hard to step right in after 3 months away if you have not kept in touch. Your company should know that you will not always be available, but do plan to check in regularly by email or via a short, weekly scheduled call. If you are going to be heading back to full-time work, there is a good chance you will need to enroll your child in daycare or to find a nanny. You don't have to wait until your child is born to start looking.  Daycare – Ask for friend's recommendations. Look for a daycare that is near your home or work, and which offers flexible pick-up and drop-off times. Visit and talk to the staff about their philosophies on childcare and discipline. Nanny – Nannies are more expensive, but they also offer more flexibility for working parents. To cut the cost, consider a nanny-share. These work best if the children are about the same age and the parents have similar child-raising philosophies, so choose people you know, or be sure to interview both the nanny and the parents you will be sharing with. Partner - Your partner's company may have better leave policies than your own. If your partner can get paid leave, then consider having him or her stay home with the baby while you transition back to work. Knowing your partner is home with the baby can make for a much less stressful transition than sending your child to daycare. Don't forget the little things. It's best to take any personal belongings you treasure home, as you can't be certain they won't be disturbed. In some cases, another worker might even be using your desk when you're gone, so be sure to also remove personal files like performance reviews. And don't forget to set out-of-office messages that tell the caller or emailer who they can contact in your absence.
Summary:
Plan out how you will divide up your current responsibilities. Inform your coworkers. Talk with clients and other outside contacts. Bring as many projects to a close as possible. Make plans to stay in touch. Consider your reentry strategy in advance. Remove personal property from your desk and set your out-of-office voice and email.
