It began several years ago when I started working for Mr. H as a temp. It took time, effort, mistakes and a lot of painful focus to learn and ultimately, I was successful. He asked me to find a location, negotiate a lease, remodel the space if needed and take care of all interior decorating and procurement. Negotiators.

If you don’t have those basics down, it’s not really something you can learn well enough to truly change the trajectory of your career in a reasonable amount of time. EA work is typically admin work - phones, travels, calendars, expense reports, mtgs/luncheons, etc.

If I had more work to do and would be learning along the way, I would stay. Right now I just put things on his calendar and order food. And as I was working, job hunting and/or temping, I had to find other sources of happiness. I also thought about money, salary negotiation, and how I was spending my time. Many thanks!
