There are no shortcuts that should be taken. There is a reason for each and every page in that "big" book and you need to know them all. Granted, some things will be used every day and others maybe once in a year. But, you need to be prepared when any situation arises. When your at the table at 11 o'clock at night, there's no one to call for help. You have to rely on your knowledge and experience. Taking shortcuts may very well shortcut your notary career and possibly even cost you your commission, monetary loss and maybe incarceration. This is a profession, not to be taken lightly. If you cannot devote the time required to learn the ropes, then maybe you should look at doing something else. |
