This is amazing. I've been looking for an associatiation or forum for EAs to share experiences. I was trained in England at a secretarial college many years ago. (too many years ago to admit

I currently work for a high profile executive in Toronto. It is stressful, exciting and challenging.

This is my first posting and I see chat about using Blackberries (or not). When I started my positon with Mr Executive, I was told it was 24/7 with a blackberry and my home computer set up so I could work from home.
I just about flipped .. when can I ever turn this stuff off??
But is it the best way to manage my life. It actually gives me more freedom.
It's this kind of chat that will be so helpful.
I look forward to meeting everyone ... and thanks for being there

Hi Lizzie B. It's great to meet you. I am an Executive Assistant, currently working in Edmonton, Alberta. I am so glad that other Canadians are finding this site. I too have been working in the administrative field for, let's just say, a significant amount of time. Looking forward to seeing you around the water cooler and reading your posts.

Hi Gee Bee
Good to meet you. We have offices in Edmonton and Calgary so I'm in touch and love our Western connection. Wouldn't that be fun to meet next time I'm in Edmonton ?
I'm already using this site as a great resource and look forward to chatting.
Have a great day,
Lizzie B
