It's nice to be the one in the office with your name on the door and proofreaders coming to you looking for work. I assume secretaries can also rise to become the boss. Look at that dumb Melanie Griffith movie Working Girl for example. If she can rise anyone can!:lol: I used to feel a little ashamed of being a proofreader at a magazine (catching the writer’s and editor’s mistakes wasn’t all fun and games, believe me) but proofreaders do morph like butterflies and turn into editors and writers.

The scary kind. I still can't believe I stayed that long but was more committed to the company than him so am still there. Actually I work in the IT department now and am much happier than when I was dropping off dry cleaning, babysitting, cleaning house oh yes, and doing the odd bit of typing and travel arrangement...

Only, they've appended some hideous title to we flunkies here. And since it's an international aid office, our title's been made into an acronym of sorts. Administrative Coordinator = AdCo. Horrible. Welcome to the club. No spankings in my office either. Just some fit throwing and the occasional ballooning ego to contend with. As a fellow secretary, I salute you.

If I ever walked in and saw him as my boss I'd have to run away at top speed before my clothes spontaneously combusted in shame and confusion. and yes, looks like we were/are all secretaries. Except I ditched my job to be a ....TEACHER! Gah...Something tells me you're getting better perks than I am. oh my god…James Spader…why is that guy so creepy…why is that guy so sexy? how does he do it?
