Coming from a legal background, we were always taught if you are using an acronym or initialism in writing, on the first use you should spell it out and then put the acronym in brackets, which makes a lot of sense and saves a lot of head scratching and searching the document to figure out what the person is referring to.

I dont mind being referred to as someones assistant. My current boss always refers to me as his colleague, both to those within our company and to external contacts when referring them to me. I tend to use the term boss when I refer to my employer. I am not a legal expert and do not claim to give any legal advice.

As you previously stated, this is a great way to not only meet new people but you can expand your list of contacts to include the new assistant. Like you, I list the new assistant as not only a contact but a definite resource for future references. I am not a legal expert and do not claim to give any legal advice.

If you do have to leave, dont forget to ask for a reference letter. My former boss gave me an excellent reference on paper and by phone. A good reference can go a long way towards getting your next job. I am not a legal expert and do not claim to give any legal advice. 411 Look Up 411.ca
