Society of Virtual Assistants News: August 2013
Hello
This month has been quite exciting – not only did Office* show ask me to come speak at their unofficial VA day on Wed 9th October, but I also got approached by a TV company researching the history of the secretarial industry… Watch this space!
The major dilemma is do I appear in my suit or do I come as I normally am in my jeans? I suspect a whole day in my heels might kill me – there is lots to see. Office have asked me to invite you along – click here for free pass. If you are going, please do come and say hello, I love meeting all the SVAers!
Speak soon!
