Male "assistants"

JimEverett said

I used to call everyone in my office a secretary - even the paralegals. My wife heard me and said that was a no-no so I stopped.

I really dislike the prevailing use of 'assistant' that goes on nowadays. Your position = secretary not executive assistant, not assistant, secretary.

As far as calling everyone a secretary, its better than some of the older guys I used to work with would just call them 'the girl'.

"Just get the girl to copy it" "Get the girl to make more coffee" etc..
