Welcome, y'all.

Typical of new blogs, I will be posting herein a general description of what this blog will be about in terms of content. Just to give you a general reference for things you can & cannot expect from me.

Things I Will Try to Include
1. Emails or questions from readers or other bloggers regarding reception, administrative work, or general office asshattery.
2. I like lists. I make lists for everything in my life. So I'll probably write a lot of how-to lists, including, as my first installment, how to approach your receptionist to get her to do something for you.
3. General musings on office life from an "outsider" perspective. What I mean by that will be explained in future postings...

Things You Will Not See
1. Sympathy for office idiots.
2. Specific mentions of my job, or any emailer's or blogger's job - unless given prior authentication from said emailer or blogger, all personal information will be kept confidential, including my name. I'm not stupid, & I don't want to get fired.
3. Legal advice. I am not a lawyer, nor do I have access to many people within the legal profession. If there is a pressing or particularly interesting legal question, I may venture a guess or send it along to one of my lawyer friends, but for the most part, this will be mostly simple venting or commiserating with other like-minded individuals; not so much dispensing legal advice regarding your recent job change.

Please, do feel free to email me thoughts, suggestions, stories, questions, & comments, as I am always looking for new material to include in whatever creative endeavor upon which I embark. I am generally receptive to well-thought-out, grammatically correct emails.

Until Next Time,

-M.Secretary
