Call a reporter and ask her not to print what the CEO said on the record. 😒 I refused.
Obv. Neither of my bosses ever worked as a reporter - unlike my more than a decade of experience. Yet they didn’t believe me. 🙄😒😑
Convince airport to let me go through the security checkpoint…back to the plane (that I wasn’t on)…
to get a client’s cell phone they “dropped’ (spoiler - no they didn’t) 🙄
Coach
Oh man, the lengths we’ll go to for clients. I’m so impressed!
Staying up until 2am so I could call hairdresser on another continent.
All so the client could get a short-notice appointment, ahead of a media appearance.
Get out of here!! Just when I thought your wild client experience couldn't get crazier. Wow. I'm honestly speechless 😲
When I was an intern, I had to go get a CEO’s glasses fixed during the day. Literally sprinted to 3 different eyewear stores and finally found one that could fix them. It was a devil wears Prada moment for sure.
Coach
Haha absolutely incredible. Hopefully they were appreciative!!
I had to run out to buy cat treats for "Socks" and specific Celestial Seasonings teas for First Lady Hillary Clinton when she visited my workplace during President Clinton's term.

Can't say too much because of client confidentiality, but I worked for a very recognizable political figure who had an op-ed placed and wanted it in print. So I went to the world's sketchiest corner market in a not great part of town because that is the only place I could find it.
Coach

"Beautify" a document because the senior executive is apparently not good at Microsoft word. I left the job after a year and half. 😭
Coach
LOL the worst. Reminds me of a client I had who would call to ask us to change the date on the first slide in his PowerPoints because he didn’t know how to edit the text 😭
Okay but that sounds fun lol
