Question for those in administrative support positions.

Do you consider it part of your job to keep up a good rapport with your boss?

4. Well, if you strive to, but nothing happens, at least you tried.

5. I was a secretary for 4+ years.

My approach was to be a complement by filling the gaps and roles that my bosses failed to. I never tried to get my people to be anyway other than they were; I just picked up the pieces.
