Why can't I just be a secretary? Would I ever tell someone, when asked what I do for a living, "Oh, I'm an administrative professional." Of course not.
Gene Roddenberry, creator of all things Star Trek, once told this story. In the second season of the original series the supporting actors wanted a raise. The production couldn't afford a raise. Instead of money for the actors, they promoted the characters. Each supporting character was given a higher-ranking title. The actors backed off on their salary demands.
In that same thought line....today my bosses will bring me gifts. :D All the cards will say Happy Administrative Professionals' Day. I will smile. Say thank you and accept the title that allows me to accept the gifts.
Happy Administrative Professionals' Day!
