Yep, if it's his/her assistant and if he asked them to do it then that's their job.

LOL

You're their assistant, that's your job, to assist them

Seriously if your boss ask you to vaccum the floor in his office, I know you're not going to tell him no.

Things like that happen all the time, even though its not in your job description.

Exactly, I thought they had cleaning people who came in and did stuff like that after business hours. Not ask your assistant to vacum your office-lol

That's strange in a professional corporate atmosphere. Anywhere I worked, a cleaning crew came in at night. What kind of Micky Mouse operation are you working for Solomon? LOL.

TURBOCSX · 03-27-2007, 07:46 PM

i've got one even better. There was a time where my cheapo boss thought he'd save a few bucks and clean the office himself. instead of paying the $75 a week, he spent 5 hours on a saturday emptying all the garbage and vacuming and doing everything else the cleaners usually do. well, that lasted maybe a 3 weeks. then he went back to hiring someone.

If he wasted something on the floor or if he saw something and he thought it needed cleaning then I can see his assistant getting it up for him. OR just maybe he/she was being nice and they noticed that the floor was dirty and needed cleaning and they took it upon themselves to clean the mess.

I find it very demeaning. A cleaning crew or custodian should do it, especially if it's routine-type cleaning. If it's something that just happened at the moment that needed cleanup, the boss should clean it up him/herself. If not, he, or she is either 1) an exploiter of people (in making the secretary do it), or 2) a cheap b****** who won't allocate money in his budget to hire a janitor.

Kazza · 03-28-2007, 01:05 AM

Yes I've heard of it. My previous employer's front office manager used to do it for her boss .
