I remember throughout the first week that I was there, when I asked a question on how to do something, someone would say, "its in the manual, did you not read it?" I think people forget how overwhelming everything can be when you start a new job. I basically know how to answer the phones and take messages. It is overwhelming.

How did I do it? At the end of it, I knew how to take minutes and could write about it. A good way to learn letter writing and style is from someone who knows how to do it well. Read their letters and reports and see how they craft their words. I interviewed my friend who is a minute taker. There is usually a pattern.

Some of the younger bosses are certainly qualified and know how to do some things administratively, but is it an efficient use of their time and is it good job security for us? Many young executives have never had an assistant before and are so used to not having one, that they don't know how to utilize one. 411 Look Up 411.ca

Where I used to work we had a Mailroom and I would plunk what I needed in a tray with a form to tell them how I wanted it to turn out and return to get it when it was finished. Because I dont have the interaction that I had in the open space, I am not sure who to ask or who would know how to do it in a more efficient way. I liked that.

I saw your article on Admin Secret. I find the signature line is so impersonal however so I always type my name before it and if I am going to put a P.S., put it under that.
