Today is the third day of my month-long sojourn as secretary to the assistant director of our agency.
Am arranging lots of conferences, trips, paying lots of invoices and the like. My own desk is going to ruin, however, since I am only doing "this" job and not "that" job, as well.
I will say this: They would rather have me learn this job completely, if only for a month, than to hire someone new for a longer stint who could be muddling through the files left by my deceased co-employee.
Sigh!
