When I was an assistant, I did not stick around. Not for meeting. Not for anything. If I got off at 2:30, don't look for me @ 2:31. One time I was still at work at 2:35 and one of my co-workers asked if I needed something; if something was wrong. I thought the same thing. When I was an assistant, I did not stick around.

I found, when I finally felt comfortable enough to do it, asking for help is a relief. I feel so much better now, but it took years and years before I would even admit I needed help. I just felt I needed to work harder. Now, I try to work smarter by asking for help. :) Leila,
