Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

Recently, a temp worker at my job gave me another Google tip. Of course before I recommend anything I try it out so I picked up the phone and it asked me what I was looking for and what city and province. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. Google has an information line ( 1 800 466 4411 ).
