Hi Andrea

I've actually been interested by something that has 'happened' to my boss this last week.

Since my printing issues of last week (see 'Admins 4 Admins') my boss has been trying to get on with things where he can including sending his own emails.  Perhaps I scared him a bit! lol!  He always dictated emails to me but I think he has discovered that he can probably do them just as quickly by sitting there and getting on with them.

This is perhaps where I feel roles will change.  Bosses may well realise that they can actually do things which they historically passed to us to do.  I know certainly with my boss that he seems to get a great deal of satisfaction from doing something which is really just part of everyday working life to you or I (like printing selected text!  Bless 'im!).

Doesn't bode well does it?!  Still, he doesn't seem to have found the kettle just yet...

All the best,
Nicola.
