When people assume that you’re not intelligent or talented because you “just answer the phones”
500
Caller: “I want to talk to that kid... I have no idea what his name is. He’s young. Gimme him.”
499
When people use the scanner behind your desk and can’t figure it out... the directions are right there, people! Read!
498
When other admins COULD take phones for you for half an hour so you can train someone, but they “just don’t feel like it”
497
When a guy who calls often feels the need to tell you his full name, company, job title, and the address of the company EVERY time he calls in
496
When you’re supposed to have a meeting with a VP and get someone to cover phones for you, but your terrible admin “friends” in other offices refuse...
(But then the VP calls and yells at them, so it’s ok)
495
When you tell a caller that someone is working remotely and is not in the office, so the caller should try the employee's cell phone... and he keeps calling back into the office and asking for the same person
494
Me: "He's unavailable right now. Would you like his voicemail?"
Salesperson: "Oh, actually, what would be a good time to reach him?"
What I Wish I Could Say: "Never."
493
Being able to recognize footsteps so you know who's coming down the hallway to your desk... and sighing if it's someone you don't want to see (which is, well, actually pretty much everyone)
492
Counting down the minutes until lunch time
491
When somebody ships ice cream in dry ice to the president, and he wants you to deal with the dry ice
Lol, no, I did not sign up for that.
490
Caller: "He's always in a meeting, isn't he? Well @#*$& that. I think you're just not putting me through to him."
489
Having to squeeze past people in the hallway akwardly, because the building has no storage space and the hallways are lined with filing boxes
488
When people forget their building key cards and you have to let them in
487
When the president has an exorbitant salary, but "can't afford" to pay his assistants a decent wage
486
When the company decides to move to an open office plan to squeeze more people in, because they're too cheap to look for a new building
485
Me: "He's away from his desk. Would you like his voicemail?"
Caller: "I don't think voicemail will help. Can you help? Can you be helpful and walk around and find him?"
Hahahahaha! Hahahahaha! Let me think about that... NO!
