[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are people allergic to work these days? I need an assistant. The job is to assist me in an efficient manner. Do I have to go abroad to find someone who can work without wasting time, without a bad attitude, and without thinking that typing a document is beneath them?[/quote]

I'm looking for work!  I'll work as an assistant.[/quote]

Are you a good writer?

Is answering the phone beneath you? Are you polite?

Can you put together newsletters? Do basic research? Can you manage social media accounts? Can you setup new wordpress sites or are you willing to learn? Can you make follow up calls? Can you respond to emails? Can you do so without someone breathing down your neck to make sure it gets done?

Can you understand that I am not paying you 200k to do this, but if you can work to prove your value then we can talk about moving you into a revenue generating position which would move the payscale up.

Yes? Then call me.[/quote]

This is not an assistant position. This is an executive assistant position plus a communications professional position rolled into one. Your expectations may e too high.[/quote]
