I can also account this symptoms to (high) stress and multitasking at work. Usually multiple task/project requests a day + meetings, it just fucks up my focus and memory. Haven't found a cure yet and think only changing job position or prioritizing work and disregarding any interruptions would help (but you can't do that to "costumers").
Hi Void,
glad you can emphathise with my symptoms too!
I suppose to some extent it is the requirement of a 'modern' job - handling projects, meetings, people, and also handling data entry, telephones, mobiles, emails, internet, CRM systems. It can be very easy to forget something as my job requires continual multitasking, stopping and starting, and it sometimes seems nigh on impossible to have perfect admin skills as well as remember everything 100%, but I could at least improve by a few points.
I suppose there are a lot of jobs that don't require multitasking and high levels of stress. Takeaway how much you can earn but there is a world of difference between being a painter and decorater for example and working in an office where you are stretched. As a painter its your job to paint a room for example and each day you paint a wall. Sure, there is a boredom factor but you are focusing on one thing, with complete focus for that day. Where as with what we do, its focusing on 100 things on one day.
