It’s Secretaries’ Week Again

I understand [tag]Secretaries’[/tag] Week is coming soon. I don’t know exactly when, but judging from the ads on the radio and on the papers, I’m thinking its pretty soon.

(Side note: You guys might want to read something I wrote last year. Captivating stuff, you’ve got to read it. Anyways, for the record, I keep getting these incoming clicks to that article from people searching for ‘sexy secretaries’ using Google and other search engines. Every week, without fail, I kid you not. I have no idea why. End of side note).

I have just gotten over my mild shock of reading about ‘Easter Buffet Lunch’ offered by some KL hotels last weekend (“Come celebrate the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ in a Totaling Unrelated All-You-Can-Eat Feast of International Cuisine, All For a Unbelievably Cheap RM85++ per pax!”), now the barrage Secretaries’ Day luncheon ads about Anita Sarawak / [tag]Anuar Zain[/tag] / Camelia / The Famous Kong Brothers.

Anyways, I won’t be going into the whole commercialized circus it has become, I’m just curious what kind of bosses are the ones that actually go with their secretaries to these expensive luncheons and show. I’m thinking those bosses who send their Girl Fridays to these shows are either high powered CEO’s with Superwoman handle-it-all [tag]Secretary[/tag] that can do everything under the sun, or sleazy bosses trying to hit on their [tag]sexy secretaries[/tag] behind their wives’ backs. But I could be wrong. I’ve worked for many, many bosses over the years, (some of them were good, some eat live bats for breakfast), but none of them send their staff for any Secretaries’ Week luncheons. Not even the good ones.

So who actually are the ones going to these things?

Last week when I asked my colleague who, incidentally is a secretary, if her boss is sending her to one of these shows. Her reply? “Hah! DREAM ON…!”
