# Mitch Tankersley — Daily Progress Tracker
## About
Mitch Tankersley is an employee at MPM (Message Point Media) currently operating under **diminished autonomy** — a structured accountability period requiring daily check-in and check-out reporting to Jason.
**Manager:** Jason (jason@messagepoint.tv)
**Status:** Diminished autonomy — daily task accountability required
**Tracker started:** 2026-05-28
**Reporting method:** Mitch reports his check-ins and check-outs directly to Jason via **Google Chat**. Jason logs all entries here as his direct supervisor — Mitch does not write to this file himself.
---
## Working Framework
Condensed from the supervisor's "Moving Forward" document (MPM internal, confidential). Defines the terms of the diminished-autonomy period.
### Schedule
- In-office MondayFriday, **9:00 AM 6:00 PM**. No remote work under any circumstance.
- Any absence during business hours requires advance supervisor approval and is recorded as PTO.
- Exception: authorized out-of-town deployments coordinated through Finance.
### Daily Check-In (Start & End of Day)
- **Start of day:** Message supervisor with priorities before starting work.
- **End of day:** Wrap message with accomplishments — include links, artifacts, or photos where possible. "If you built it, show it."
- Suggested templates:
- **SOD** — "Morning. Today: [1] [task] · [2] [task] · [3] [task]. Blockers: [none / note]"
- **EOD** — "Done for the day. Completed: [item — link or pic]. In progress: [item, where I left off]. Tomorrow: [carry-forward]. Artifacts: [attach or link anything produced]"
### Company Vehicle (interim — pending purchase completion)
- Business use only; no personal use.
- Pay for fuel out of pocket; submit business miles for reimbursement at the standard IRS mileage rate.
- Keep a mileage log — date, destination, business purpose, miles.
- Once vehicle purchase is finalized, terms convert to the loan agreement.
### Spending & Expenses
- Restricted Spend card with Finance-managed limits.
- Approval required before purchasing — text Tiffany or Jason for fast turnaround.
- Amazon under $[limit TBD]: no approval needed; use company shared payment method.
- **Itemized receipts — no exceptions.** Every purchase requires an itemized receipt showing exactly what was bought; a total-only receipt is not sufficient. Missing or non-itemized receipts result in the pre-paid card not being replenished, or the amount deducted directly from his paycheck to replenish it.
### Travel Coordination
- All airfare, lodging, and vehicle rentals booked directly by MPM Finance.
- Submit travel needs to Finance at least **48 hours in advance**.
- All travel spend via Ramp pre-paid card — itemized receipts required (see Spending).
- Standard in-office schedule resumes immediately upon return to Birmingham.
### Systems & Credentials
- All accounts, software licenses, subscriptions, and credentials are MPM property at all times.
- Work with Jason to move all company-related accounts and services to a company payment method.
- Document all logins and passwords in Shared Apple Passwords.
- Access is subject to review, reassignment, or revocation at management's discretion without advance notice.
### Knowledge Transfer & Documentation
- Active documentation of all systems, processes, and integrations he owns or manages.
- Use Plaud to record walkthroughs and process notes — reduces overhead of writing from scratch.
- Coordinate with Jason on documentation priorities, format, and handoff.
- Junior shadow oversight of work product is in effect.
### Path Forward
- Every **90 days of clean performance** is an automatic step toward restored autonomy (flexibility, trust, discretion over time and tools). [[cpas]]

## Daily Log
### 2026-05-28 — Check-Out
**Time:** End of shift
**Progress Made:**
- [x] Mobile screen mounting patterns — completed
- [-] Tucson 3D prints — in progress, status unknown
**Notes:** Reported via Google Chat to Jason.
### 2026-05-29 — Check-In
**Status:** Never submitted. No morning check-in received.
### 2026-05-29 — Check-Out
**Time:** End of shift
**Progress Made:**
- [-] Tucson 3D prints — still in progress. Mitch reports it is "a very difficult print, consuming my time, prompting redesign. Trying to improve final result." No other updates given.
**Notes:** No morning check-in was submitted for this date.
**Manager assessment (Jason):** This appears to be an inefficient use of time. Tucson is a one-off project with no real gain versus simply outsourcing the work. Continued in-house iteration/redesign is not justified by the payoff.
