“Ok. So this is where all the files are kept.” The excitement in her voice was not lost to Anna.

“Yep, you can say, this room is where the entire heart of the Company is,” smiled the senior Administrator.

“This will be your domain from now Joan, so all in your good hands.”

It was Joan’s first day in office and she was having a tour of the facility. The nervousness of coming to the work field after 10 years was visible, however looking at this room, gave her the much-needed confidence.

After all, documentation filing was her expertise.

About asarpota

Like to fly, but at the same time, quite on the ground, and do tend to be realistic. Very passionate about what I believe in and do, no patience with idiots, not a perfectionist, but trying to come close to it.... Not a nerd btw, value my friends very much, can criticize and have the b***s to take it on my chin. A spade is a spade!!!

    I think it is encouraging how the insecurity of
    going back into the job vanishes when she finds that she still has the skills. With that confidence, new challenges an be tackled. Good story.

  6. Alas, an expertise soon to become redundant… replaced by computerclouds.

  7. I shouldn’t admit this but I loved filing! I’m a very organized person, everything in it’s place and a place for everything. Dull, I know, but what can I say…
    Well done!

      Thanks Yolanda.. All I can say is, even though this is considered to be an Admin role, I freak out if files are not in order and I believe this is one challenging job… Thanks for the stop.. Cheers.
