Happy labor day! I sure hope you are appreciating all that you bring to work, your clients and the world.
I think Virtual Assistants/Administrative Support Consultants totally embody what Seth Godin spoke about in his blog post today: Whatever Happened to Labor?
With so many businesses merely commoditizing work, the humanity of it, the skill and craft of it, gets lost and trivialized and dehumanized–thus devaluing it. But with us, the relationship is our product and the work our craft. We are in business exactly as Seth states it: to use our hands, our backs and our heads to do work that helps our clients move forward and do important things in the world. Our work is not menial. It’s not mundane or trivial. It’s important and requires skill and expertise and craftsmanship.
Having fun on a day like today is an expression of gratitude for being able to do just that. So go express yourself!
Thanks for commenting. Yeah, the virtual assistant term is really completely idiotic to...
