Playing Secretary

I got the pleasure of playing secretary in Swallow's tax office today. :) Lets put it this way, I am glad I went to college! Although, I don't technically use my degree, having my degree at least over qualifies me for a receptionist position.

In my first five minutes the "lead" secretary/receptionist was informing me that I needed to change a few names on a letter and print out copies of them. Okay, this isn't rocket science, I am pretty sure I can get this done. Five minutes later, I was done, had them printed on the company letter head and was ready for task number two. She couldn't believe that I not only was able to do this task, but also that I had it done and in neatly organized piles for each tax preparer. Who knew that the blonde was capable of typing, printing, organizing and doing so in a timely manner?
The look on this ladies face, was just priceless.

I am sure that she is an extremely hard worker. I guess college does teach you how to work smarter not harder.

Lesson of the day, don't judge a book by its cover!

May you all appreciate the people that have a brain and are capable of using it!
