As an Assistant do you wish people took you more seriously? Do you struggle to get senior members of staff to listen to you? Do you start work a little early, miss lunch or have it at your desk (while being interrupted) and finish work a little later? Maybe the idea of saying ‘no’ to colleagues makes you feel nervous? Do you feel like you can be your complete self at work, or do you accommodate people so often you even forget who you are anymore?
