Our senior admin at work left early for an appointment yesterday. After she was gone I took a card into one of her supervisors to sign and pass thru the office. (I keep greeting cards for random occasions in my desk, no biggie.)
The supervisor says, "do you really think she is a secretary anymore?". The senior admin does all of her original admin work and was recently given the production side of marketing, too. My response was, "if you want coffee for a meeting, who do you ask to make it for you?".
I was blown away by the supervisor's comment because they are very buddy-buddy and the admin would be really bugged if she knew they balked at signing a card for her.
If I may suggest, tomorrow is Administrative Professional's Day, do something nice for the people in your work environment that help you, regardless of their title. Even if you bring them a cup of coffee when you pick up yours on the way in, it really IS the thought that counts.
:thanks:
