Let the Floggings Begin

Some helpful hints to any secretaries administrative assistants out there.

1. If you reschedule someone for a meeting with your boss for a Wednesday morning, please enter it into the calendar for Wednesday, not Tuesday. Not only does it make you look better, but it's helpful for your boss and the person he's trying to get in touch with.

2. If you're going out of town for two days after you've messed up the schedule, change your voicemail to let people know you're not around to rectify the unfortunate situation you've created by being an idiot a tad scatterbrained.

Thanks for trying (my patience).
