I also feel the role of the secretary/PA has changed (at least at my company). I started here in 1981, and at that time we did EVERYTHING for the bosses. Now that technology has improved so much, there is an awful lot that they do themselves now. I feel that the secretarial portion of my job has turned into a strictly mechanical position. I'm now mostly a telephone answerer and letter printer. Even the letters are typed by most of the bosses and only e-mailed to me to format, print, and mail. The bosses do all of their own presentations now - I haven't used PowerPoint in so long, I'd probably need a refresher course! If the bulk of my job didn't now consist of purchasing and reimbursements, I would be going out of my skull with boredom or probably would have tried to find another job by now.
