Now keep it safe: three things
  1. Keep your photos and files unedited. The receipt only matches the originals. Put them in an album such as “My records”.
  2. Save this receipt to your camera roll.

    Keep the receipt file too. The image is a handy copy; checking needs the file.

  3. Email it to yourself.Email it to myself

    Your mail app opens a draft. Attach your receipt image and receipt file. Don’t attach your photos or documents. Timevolt does not send it or know whether it was sent.

      How to keep notes that hold up

      Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.

      1. Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
      2. Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
      3. Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
      4. Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
      5. Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

      US Second Circuit · 2013

      Compare old reviews with later firing reasons

      A worker challenged changing reasons for being let go, including claims of poor work. Earlier reviews and the timing of warnings mattered. The appeal court reopened claims of payback but kept other claims closed; the worker had not finally won.

      US Sixth Circuit · 2013

      A sudden low rating needs its earlier context

      A worker with strong past results got a low rating during staff cuts. The court found enough evidence to reopen an unfair-treatment claim. It did not finally decide the worker was treated unfairly.
