The mindless fluff shared in admin assistant groups on Facebook is getting on my last nerve, so I'm looking to join more professional groups on LinkedIn. Of course, there are hundreds to choose from! Do you belong to any LI groups and if so, which ones are worth joining?

LinkedIn has great resources, but don’t underestimate the value of a little lightheartedness. Admin work can be intense, and sometimes you just need a laugh or a relatable post to recharge.

I just saw that a Hubler watch given to Hitler sold at auction for $1.1 million. It is an interesting watch (despicable as the recipient of said watch was), but it got me thinking about a larger question: does anyone here collect watches owned by the famous (or infamous)?

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.
Part of MC team.

Thank you.

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities. In an effort to make my job opportunity appealing, I am asking everyone in this bowl about an appropriate job title. Is "Administrative Assistant" outdated or unappealing? I certainly don't want to mislead anyone on the job responsibilities, but I do want to avoid any potential negative stereotypes attached to that job title. Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?
