I also have a quick check over my emails and calendar for the day, I do have a few meetings today that I also need to attend. 0910 – So far so good, I have a cup of tea and have had the time to set up my computer, open the post and even say hello to my colleagues. 1630 – Another meeting to attend.

Recently I was working with someone on an Excel document. They sent an e-mail wondering if any of the assistants could help them export a document from Excel to Word.
