INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It can be intimidating for remote employees to reach out to other employees if they don’t know one another first. Choose a few important staff members that the remote employees will interact with and introduce them over a video conference if possible. Otherwise, give the remote employees the staff members’ contact information so they can reach out if they need to. Try to anticipate any problems or questions the employee might have and include these details in your manual. Specific details help the employee understand what to do more quickly.  For example, don’t just say “Submit your work when you are done.” Instead write, “Click the button that says ‘Submit’ to send in your work when it is finished. This will refresh the page and take you back to the main portal.” Make sure to cover details like how to report hours, where to submit work, or who to contact if something goes wrong. In addition to telling your employees how to do something, make sure they understand any rules, quotas, or guidelines they will be expected to follow. How much are they expected to do a week? How often should they communicate with you? When should they submit their work by? For example, you might say, “We expect you to take 5 calls an hour” or “We need you to check your email at least once an hour between 9 AM and 5 PM.” If there are any special programs or equipment that the employee has to use, provide clear visual instructions showing them how to use it in addition to written instructions.  If you’re working with a computer platform, use a screenshot program to take pictures or videos of the screen demonstrating each step in the process. Diagrams and graphics may be useful for employees who need to install special equipment or software. If you have many remote employees, you may want to hire a company to design an online training module to help automate part of the training process. These companies will work with you to create a personalized platform using videos and interactive tools.  These companies may advertise themselves as training or recruitment consultants. While this can be a more expensive option, it will save you significant time if you have to frequently train employees.

SUMMARY: Introduce key members of the company staff to the remote employees. Specify how to complete tasks in detail. Establish quotas and expectations for each task. Incorporate instructional videos and images for software or equipment. Invest in a web-based training program for large companies.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To use borax powder as an all-purpose household cleaner, simply sprinkle some on a clean, damp cloth and wipe down surfaces with it. After wiping, rinse surfaces clean with another fresh, wet cloth and let them air dry. Borax powder is suitable for use on household fixtures like:  Sinks Faucets Tiles Appliances Counter tops Bathtubs Sprinkle 1 cup (192 g) of borax powder into your toilet and let it sit overnight. After a few hours of soaking the borax should loosen any debris or deposits in the toilet, making them easy to clean away. In the morning, use a toilet brush to scrub away dirt, grime, and other buildup. Borax is gentle enough to use to clean  aluminum or porcelain cookware. Sprinkle borax powder over wet cookware and wipe it gently with a damp cloth. Rinse everything thoroughly and allow the cookware to air dry. Make a mixture of 3 cups (21 oz.) of water and 2 tablespoons (8 g) of borax. Stir until all of the powder is dissolved. Dip a clean cloth into the liquid and wipe down windows, mirrors, patio doors, and other reflective surfaces to create a streak-free shine. Pour approximately 1/2 cup (48 g) borax down your clogged drain. Follow this immediately by pouring 2 cups (16 oz.) of boiling water down the drain. Let it sit for fifteen minutes, then run the water for 1-2 minutes to flush out the drain. Dissolve half a cup (96 g) of borax powder into one and a half cups (12 oz.) of water. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and add a few drops of essential oil if desired. Spray on fabric and upholstery to neutralize odors and improve the overall smell of your home.

SUMMARY: Use borax as an all-purpose cleaner. Clean toilets. Wash delicate cookware. Make windows and mirrors shine. Unclog drains. Neutralize household odors.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This is commonly seen in the PvP ring, especially when you come face to face with a good Code: Exotic user. This combo will release the new class weapon, which is the spear, along with the magic that lunges the enemy into the air before striking them down with spear. Due to the short combo and energy ball that throws enemy in mid air (making them vulnerable), Code: Exotic players tend to execute this repeatedly. To do this combo, press the arrow button twice towards your enemy to run and then press X for the magic ball, followed by Z that unleashes the spear and then repeat. (>> or <<, X, Z) Now that you're enemy is accustomed to your Spear Launcher, they will either try to attack ahead then jump into the air to avoid the energy ball. You can counter this using your Spear Dash where you get to run towards your enemy and then unleash the spear right away. This attack will send your enemy back, knocking them down and give you a chance to connect it with your Spear Launcher combo. To use this, dash towards your enemy and then press 'Z' three times. Per tap, the spears grows bigger and so does the magic damage it causes. (>> or <<, Z, Z, Z). It's unavoidable to have your 'Z' combo canceled because the enemy either found an opening or managed to escape. Spear Riser prevents your opponent from canceling your moves, and on top of that, you can end it with either the two combos mentioned above, depending on the situation.  When you press 'Z' three times, Eve will use her normal combo, but when you press down, followed by two 'Z', Eve will unleash her spear from the ground that will send her enemy flying. The spear will surround her so even if the enemy manage to jump above you, by the time they're about to land behind, they'll be greeted with a spear. Once hit, the enemy will be thrown in the air where they become vulnerable for another set of combo. (Z, Z, Z, Down, Z, Z).

SUMMARY:
Use the Spear Launcher. Use the Spear Dash. Defend using Spear Riser.
