Scored me a couple of new books today. Typcially, I don't get books like these....I am more of a Sandra Brown, James Patterson kind of gal. However, a very good friend of mine recommended that I read both of these books by Joan Burge. And given the current economic climate and uncertainty of any given job market, I didn't think it was a bad idea.If you haven't figured out, or already knew, by day, I am an Executive Assistant to the Vice Chairman of a family owned private corporation in the aerospace industry. Sounds exciting, no? Oh, it's very exciting. My days are filled with flashing phone lines, more emails that anyone should ever have to deal with, last minute travel arrangements and dealing with the whims of a man who is only 3 weeks older than me! Very exciting.....NOT!
Actually, the "bossman" is a good guy. I have been working for him since the beginning of 2001. He would like people to believe that he runs the show, but we really all know that behind every successful businessman is a very stressed and electrified Executive Assistant. And that would describe me to a T.....electrified!
Right now, my days are filled with several rather thick reference books.....Photoshop CS3, InDesign, Illustrator and CS3 Bibles. Whew! The bossman decided that I have mastered all of the MSOffice software, so I need a new challenge. I am all for the challenge. Now if I can talk the IT department to get me license for home.....ummmm, I don't think that is going to be a possibility. But a girl can dream!!!
Okay, did all of you see this awesome new line from Cosmo Cricket? I WANT IT!!!!! It's soooo cute. Hmmm, I am going to have to start saving pennies!!!
