My boss (one of them) just came in to wish me a happy Administrative Professionals' Day and promise to take me out to lunch on Friday.  It quite boggled me, because though I've had the title of "secretary" for going on two years now, it never occurred to me to apply that sort of recognition to myself--not that I knew that was today anyway. 

I love her dearly, I appreciate the gesture, and I kind of wish she hadn't thought of it, because that sort of recognition makes me uncomfortable.  But I can hardly refuse. 

It's just one of those things that shifts my perception slightly.  It's probably good for me.

Go and enjoy the lunch. A good admin person can make or break an office. I have the utmost respect for the secretaries in the offices I worked in. They have to put up with all kinds of stuff and correct grammer and spelling etc. I hope you have a good time. anne

Ooh, editing is one of the things I like to do! I wish some people would let me check their e-mails before they sent them, for instance. But I don't handle a lot of admin chores, it's more sideline stuff.

I'm a minion. I LIKE being a minion. ;P Thanks though!
