Bosses here's your last chance to give something special to your administrative professional, who has made it his or her job to make your life run smoothly.
We've been talking about it non-stop for the past two weeks: IT'S TIME TO GIVE YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANTS WHAT'S COMING TO THEM!
And that would be flowers. Yes, because Monday marks the beginning of Administrative professional's week, and as their boss, you should be the first to tell them how much you appreciate the gift they give you every day: administration!
With The Flower Pot holding your hand, you can show your appreciation easily. Get this lovely orchid and rose-filled arrangement, or choose from our selection of suggestions. All are the perfect size to go on a desk, and will provide hours of refreshing spring smells. The shrewd boss will get the arrangement delivered at the end of the week so the recipient can enjoy it for the rest of the weekend, but we leave it entirely up to you!

This great drawing says it all: the more administrative professionals you work with, the more flowers you need this Administrative Professionals Week 2013 (April 22-26), to show them how important their work is.
What would happen without admins? Nothing short of the end of the world as we know it, but we can already imagine some of the things that would occur:
wait times would never end
all our official files at any institution would get lost
nothing would be organized
everything would cost more and take more time
Those of you looking to join the administrative professionals workforce have your work cut out for you. Never fear however, The Flower Pot has discovered an outdated, but hilarious video of what not to do.
Unlike this girl, real admins do a great job, and APW is about showing your appreciation. The Flower Pot has a few gift suggestions to that end. Get a Secretarial Surprise full of orchids and roses to brighten your admin's desk. If you have it sent to them on the 26th of April, they'll be able to take it home and enjoy it all weekend!
This year's edition of Administrative Professional's Week, or APW, is coming up fast. From Monday, April 22nd to Friday, April 26 it's time to remind your right arm how important the work he or she does is to you.

Adaptability: We ensure the success of our
association by embracing positive change and by nurturing diversity,
creativity and visionary thinking.
