Secretary's Day or Week(not sure)

[cpsaddict]

So, I am a secretary at a farm store/tractor dealership. Most of the employees are guys, there are only two women. Anyway, I had no idea it was Secretary's Day or Week or whatever, but they got me this huge flower arrangement and a carrot cake! I thought that was so sweet. In my world, men just do not think of these things, but my boss sent someone out last night to pick something up.

They just made my day! Almost as good as seeing a rf toddler! (I had to make this car seat related!:D )

Yeah, Administrative Professional is the new name for Secretary :)
(I was in the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP) last year. It was founded as National Secretaries Association and changes its name in 1998)

Carrot cake? The best I ever got was flowers, but they were beautiful and I was thrilled!

I had no idea it was today, either. My boss handed me a card and said "I know you're so much more than an Admin, but we wanted to do something to let you know how much we appreciate everything you do for us". I got a $100 gift card to Homegoods. Woo Hoo!

That's great that all of you got neat stuff!

I really love my company, they are absolutely great - however, I think they forgot about AP Day! I didn't get anything! :(

Yeah, I was pretty happy. They were so cute, too. They were all standing around my desk when I got there. They all said, "Happy Sec. Day!" They are all older guys, like 40's and 50's, so I was happily surprised!
