They are undervalued and overburdened. National Receptionists Day on May 10 (the second Wednesday of each May) is our opportunity to demonstrate to these men and women who administers the office.
Depending on where they work, receptionists have numerous responsibilities. However, they frequently function as the boss’ gatekeeper. Ensure that you treat them well, particularly if you have a meeting with the CEO. Bad behaviour in the lobby is typically reported to the executive suites. Have no demeanour when interacting with them.
Jenna Fischer’s portrayal of Pam in the smash-hit television comedy “The Office” made receptionists across the nation beam. She states in the pilot, “I don’t think it’s many little girls’ dream to be a receptionist,” indicating her initial lack of enthusiasm. Pam maintains her generosity and sense of humour. Whether they like it or not, that is their duty. From managing schedules to ensuring printers have paper, receptionists ensure the smooth operation of the office. Receptionists must know what their superiors want before the superiors themselves do. And they must make it appear effortless. The National Secretaries Association is established to achieve greater traction in this particular career path. The growth of the women’s rights movement raises the demand for higher pay and improved benefits for secretaries.

A note highlighting a specific instance in which they excelled in their position or a gift card to their preferred establishment can surely boost their spirits.
Conversely, handwritten pleasantries are lovely, but they do not pay the rent. Consider whether the most essential person in the office deserves additional compensation.
Cannot afford to increase salaries? Then provide your receptionist with a paid vacation day. It will provide them with an opportunity to recharge, and the entire personnel will benefit.
