According to a press release from OfficeRecruit.com it’s National Secretary’s Day today (25th April). A recent survey by OfficeRecruit.com also “revealed” that:
- * 58% of PAs would like to be thanked when doing a good job
* 40% think their contribution to the company could be improved by rewarding and recognising hard work
* 37% feel that office support staff are overlooked
* 33% say that their immediate boss recognises their efforts but that this is not shared company wide
So, 42% of PAs don’t want to be thanked for doing a good job. Well they won’t want the “flowers, candy, small gifts, or lunch at a restaurant” suggested as a thank you for “one’s assistant” by Wikipedia!
