If the meeting is internal, I send a meeting request, but for external meetings I tend to just confirm with them the meeting details by phone or e-mail. Much easier than searching in Outlook and less stressful. As I hear from the different parties I can put a check mark or an X whether they are available or not. 411 Look Up 411.ca

Humour is a powerful stress reliever if done in good taste, but timing is everything. Its not that Im funny, because Im not, but I find a lot of things funny.

An interview can be as stressful on those conducting it as on the person being interviewed if the conversation does not flow. A firm but short handshake is all it takes. Be prepared in the interview with your own questions too. I always like the interview to be a conversation, with both sides talking. 411 Look Up 411.ca

Internal e-mails amongst co-workers should have a business tone to it as well, although less formal.

Frustration Level (0 – 1oo): 45 – UIDatePicker is still a nasty thing, not to mention that working with time in Objective C is a pain in the arse. You have to subclass Calendars, Time Zones and Time Components if you want to do some fine grained date comparisons. Incredibly stressful. Complicated.
