I'm sure many of us have watched the Pixar production Finding Nemo. Nemo is so cute and adorable, right?
But this is not about Nemo. It's about another clownfish called... Clowny.
Once upon a time, there was a clownfish called Clowny. In the real world, under the sea, fishes have to work too. So did Clowny. Like all clownfish, Clowny's job was being a service provider. Besides providing a service to others (literally), he had to clear others' shit sometimes (literally).
Clowny was doing a great job servicing his client and the client was very happy with Clowny's services. Clowny felt that his greatest achievement was winning the client's trust and favour.
But like all jobs, the fish-in-charge of an account would change from time to time. And so it was the same for Clowny's account. He had to hand over his account to another fish called Fishy.
One day, Fishy told Clowny,
"Actually this job is beneath me. The boss knows it too that asking me to do this job is an insult to me."
Clowny didn't know what to make of that.
He thought, so I have been a clown all this while...

There are people who feel BIG by making others feel small.
fishy IS ONE OF THOSE. so CLOWNY don't have to bother about wat fishy says. =)
One doesn't have to do big things to prove one's worth.
Sometimes by doing small things with no mistakes, you will achieve more.
Face it, every single workplace sucks.. even mine..
A PA is not an easy job, I know it cos I am one. You have to be of certain standard to be able to meet the endless demands of the boss. If you are not that capable, would the boss want you to be his PA? No. Period.
Anyway, if your boss has not chided you or said anything negative about your performance, there shouldn't be any problems. Its the brutal truth in the working world where the big boss will not hesitate to give you a dressing down if you are a lousy worker.
And seriously, PAs are important, without us, Boss probably can't even make their own coffee!!
