. – Michael Jordan CONNECT WITH MARY Mary on LinkedIn ABOUT MARY Mary Rabin has been an executive personal assistant for over a decade, starting out by chance when after graduating from college with a degree in communications and management, she was hired as the officemanager and personal assistant for a real estate entrepreneur.
He sent the email to our officemanager, the head of HR, one of the VP’s, and the president of the company. Our officemanager did not get it because the employee sent it to the wrong address, but everyone else got it. I stated with my company eight months ago as the officemanager.
I used to work in the corporate world in advertising and had an amazing yet strict boss who made me work hard and I loved it! My mom, who is the boss-boss, is only in the office a couple days a week and when she is it’s a couple hours a day. How do I tell a bunch of interviewers I’ve decided to stay at my current job?
My first day there, the officemanager basically told me he would not be checking in on me and “what happens here, stays here,” implying that he wouldn’t tell anyone if I didn’t regularly show up. My manager also made a comment to that effect, saying “How would I know if you were there or not? ” No response.

In one experiment, researchers put together 12 groups of four and tasked each with developing a 15-second advertisement for a made up product. The Office Pets of SnackNation.
Or do hiring managers understand that candidates may get a lot of help on their cover letters, especially if they are weak writers? And if the former is true, how can a candidate who is good at their profession but bad at writing increase their chances of getting an interview? How can I back out of an interview with a staffing agency?
Due to a recent move and a three-hour increase in commuting time (it didn’t look so bad on paper), I’ve been lobbying management to work from home for a couple of scheduled days a week. My direct manager and the officemanager are both fine with the idea because I’m considered a “model” worker and have years of solid performance on record.
