I gave at the office Calendar "ah ha" Introducing The Administrative Bloopers Blog What ever happened to the "us" in Service? And that’s where a virtual administrative assistant can step in to make all the difference. Minute taking made easier. Dealing in real time. When your voicemail goes awry.
Recently, a temp worker at my job gave me another Google tip. I gave at the office Calendar "ah ha" Introducing The Administrative Bloopers Blog What ever happened to the "us" in Service?

The reality of being an EA is that while the phones, calendar, and travel are essentially the same in every office your boss and your team are always unique people with their own work styles and needs. I mention how I worked for all my CEOs because I was recruited away as a temp.
Tech glitches happen all the time and 2 people controlling one person's calendar is not the easiest thing.

For most administrative professionals, the majority of our roles contain functions that recur, such as calendar management, expense reporting and travel arrangements. Bracket your recurring functions - I came up with this idea on my own, after running it by my very intelligent adult son and my engineer, linear-brained husband.
We also get a mini break when our boss is traveling as the stress level is generally lower and we can catch up on our workload. Other jobs, because they were temp to full time, I didn’t even have the benefits of paid vacation time or paid sick days for almost a year. During the interview process ask about the company culture.
