| Ms.
Biz snack packs...
Crackers and biscuits can be popped into a ziplock bag and packed
alongside those files you�re working on. Each of the snacks listed
below are worth no more than 50 calories and can be a great help
during the night when you get the munchies in your hotel room.
2 Triscuits
2 Arrowroot
2 Graham Crackers
3 Ritz Crackers
5 animal crackers
1 fig bar or....
1 Oreo for that �chocolate or nothing� craving.
Culturally
Correct Ms. Biz...
Research your destination. Many times business etiquette that works
at home, doesn�t when you�re away. Did you know that in Korea, the
highest ranked businessperson, whether female or male, is expected
to enter and exit a meeting-room first?
Pregnant
Ms. Biz...
Make sure you have adequate health insurance coverage even if you
plan to be out of the country only for a few hours. Working �moms-to-be�
would be wise to check their policies very, very carefully. For
example, did you know that many companies don't automatically cover
pregnancy-related conditions or nursery care for premature infants?
P.S. Did you know that now you can buy travel coverage directly
from the internet. Check Liberty
Health�s Per Trip travel plan and choose the coverage you need
based on the length of your particular trip.
Working
Abroad...
The International Jobs Directory is a book that is absolutely stuffed
with information for any woman interested in short-term or long-term
employment abroad. From teaching to working in the fields of publishing,
media and travel industries, this 324 page research tool has it
all.
P.S. It also lists 100�s of web sites to explore. Definitely worth
a look at your library or local bookstore. Impact Publications.
