You have a lot of skills (not all that you use on the job, often), and even more knowledge. How can you apply that knowledge to your job/career and increase your value/worth?

Substantiate and list everything you already do at work. Keep a work diary/journal and write down everything you do.
List concrete tasks that you perform, whether on a regular or occasional basis.
List skills that you use in the course of your job. These might be computer skills, skills that you use to accomplish tasks, or general skills, such as the ability to manage money or projects.
List "soft" skills, such as communication skills. Do you deal with difficult people or touchy situations? Do you manage people? Can you help a customer to decide what she really wants and transform that information into a product specification? Write that down, too.
List knowledge that is valuable to the company. Do you remember the history of a product or process or why something is no longer done a certain way? Do you know exactly where to find information in a file or database?
Keep a list/inventory of what you do outside of work, too. Your extracurricular activities can give you ideas about skills and interests you may not yet be using on the job.
Classes, whether in person or online.
Websites and what you do on/for them
Volunteer activities.
Hobbies and pastimes.
Decide which of these skills are relevant to your current job. Look at your job description with a critical eye, both for what it currently says and what you might like it to say. Think ahead to what directions you would like your career to take.
Talk to your work acquaintances and get their professional opinions. Ask your colleagues and, if possible, your supervisor, what strengths and weaknesses they see in you. Be prepared to accept criticism gracefully.
Expand your knowledge, skills and abilities.
Take on newer or more advanced tasks.
Take a class or attend a training.
Read manuals, procedures, instructions, or any other information associated with your career goals.
Get more practice at a partially developed skill.
Learn from others who do similar jobs or tasks that you wish to attempt.
Incorporate skills you have learned outside the workplace or skills from previous jobs into your current job.
Evaluate your salary against others in your field (www.indeed.com/salary).[1]
Take into consideration where you live and work, as opposed to where others might live and work.[2]
'Rewrite' your job description to encompass your extra talents.
Ask for a pay raise. When you can demonstrate growth and, ideally, an increased worth to the company, use your journals to summarize that growth and value. Then, take your case to whoever.
Ask for a promotion. If your job has grown or changed a great deal, or if your responsibilities have increased substantially, ask for a new title as well as a new salary. This could get you the respect of your colleagues as well as put you into a higher salary scale.

Look at your hobbies[3] and interests[4] with an eye towards turning them into an extension of your job, or a new job.
Be honest with yourself. If you're not a 'people person', putting in for a sales position might not be for you.
Don't lose sight of your basic job duties in the process of growing or changing your career. Make sure that your job gets done, even as you branch out and learn new things.
Let people know you're trying to grow and improve. Your initiative will be more visible and you're more likely to get help, whether in the form of opportunities to learn (such as more advanced tasks) or direct training and advice.

Usability testing is nothing but testing done to evaluate the functioning of a product before it is released in the market. Usability testing can go awry if the facilitator is not capable enough to handle it properly. So before executing any kind of usability testing the facilitator (the person who is doing the testing) should bear in mind few points.

Do not deviate from your goal. The facilitator should be well aware of his responsibilities and that is to gather as much information as possible about the product or application. So it is upon his hands as to how he should maneuver the whole course of the testing. He can make it a success or a failure. It all depends upon how well he handles the testing procedure.
Try to know your participants. Before giving suggestions as to how to go about it, try to understand your participants. Some may grasp things very quickly while others take time. So deal with the participants accordingly.
Make them familiar with the environment. The participants may be or may not be familiar with the application, service or the product. It may not be new to some while for others it may be their first time.
Make the participants feel at ease. Provide an atmosphere where they can carry out the tasks in a relaxed mood. Do whatever you can to make them feel at ease. If they are cool and composed then only the testing would become productive.
Do not test the participants. Very often the participants do get a feeling that they are being tested instead of the product or software so they should be given the assurance that the product or service and not they are the purpose of testing.
Be a good listener. If you are a good listener then the participants would automatically feel comfortable. They will come up with suggestions of improvements.
Never intimidate them. Always give scenarios and never instruct them as nobody likes anyone bossing them around.
Do not rub them the wrong way. While carrying out the test if the participants are stuck somewhere or are not able to complete the task do not make faces or noises in a way to provide hints or your displeasure as it may hurt their ego.

Afternoon you all. How's your day so far? My day is going alright. Got a bad headache though, otherwise things are going well. I got my PR back up one of my blogs, that will gave me some advantage of getting some task from smorty, which I haven't gotten any task from them in a while. Getting my PR back to 2 is a good thing. Blogging is kind of busy today. Triple P releases a bunch of opps today. I was able to grab three of them. I wasn't able to grab anymore for today for I reached my limits.

Anyway, I hope everyone was able to grab some opps at PPP today.
