I have been an admin assistant for almost 3 years. 2.5 years with one company and 3 months with this new company. I adoooore my new company and my boss. Also, math is not my strongest asset.
Here are some things I happened upon I could not relate to more in my old job…and one I could not relate to more in my new one!
Now you’re wondering when Administrative Professionals’ Day is, aren’t you?
It’s not today, don’t worry.
Nor was it yesterday.
But good news!
You still have time to buy a gift!
A whole 24 hours in fact!
Post-its are nice.
Or vodka.
Only those two will be accepted as gifts.
Failing that, not walking to my desk to tell me you sent me an email asking me to print a piece of paper to the printer you walked past on your way to my desk would be nice.
Unrelated: regarding one of the posts above, I was asked to plan my own goodbye party and book the restaurant. #truestory
Because today was password reset day and within an hour I was swearing at my computer.
I have never related to something more.
Never.
Ever.
And finally, this:
Not office related but….I just couldn’t not post it!
That face you just made reading that, that confused face, I would like free rein to make that face at people just once a day.
Maybe twice.
Three tops!
Happy Administrative Professionals’ Day – It’s April 25th! 🙂

Psst… It’s spelled “rein”, like when you loosen the grip and give your horse free rein. It is not a royalty-related phrase, but rather an equestrian-related one 🙂
(Forgive me. I couldn’t help it. I never correct idiots’ spelling, only smart people!)
