Is April 22 marked as a special day on your calendar? If you work in any professional capacity in any office type of situation, the chances are not only the day should be marked, but the whole week should be given a little bit of extra attention.

Administrative Professionals Day formerly known as Secretary’s Day is an unofficial secular holiday observed on the Wednesday of the last full week of April and this year it falls on April 22^nd. The whole week is actually the annually observed Administrative Professionals Week to recognize the work of secretaries, administrative assistants, receptionists, and other administrative support professionals.

As stated, a great majority of people who work in an office either fall under one of these job descriptions of work closely with someone who does and really, whose constant assistance and skills make your work day a heck of a lot easier all throughout the year. It’s a rather nice gesture to not only be aware of the day, but to acknowledge those who are your right hand helpers. Everyone does like to be acknowledged and appreciated, so this holiday provides a nice change to thank those who make our lives easier.

Over the years, Administrative Professionals Week has become one of the largest workplace observances. The day is often celebrated by giving one’s assistant such gifts as flowers, candy, trinkets, lunch at a restaurant, gifts, or time off. 

At Giftsin24, we have a nice selection of personalized gifts that can demonstrate a deep level of appreciation and caring:

Our MonteVerde Medalia Neck magnetic Pink Ballpoint Pen shows a perfection combination of function and form. Since pink is not for everyone, we have plenty of other beautiful MonteVerde pens to select from.

Other “working” desk type gifts, such as our “Bachelor Pad” cherry wood desk note pad looks professional and is much more appreciative than a pile of scrape paper. For a more casual approach, we also have a fun selection of “Morph Sculptural” note pads to choose from.

If your worker is not just a busy bee, but say a Georgia Tech fan, may we suggest our Georgia Tech Collegiate Note Cards. Of course, we have a full section of other popular varsity note card and stationery sets to choose from which are also a really great idea for a graduation gifts!

Or how about our classicand traditional customized monogrammed notes  Or something like our classic Bordered Note card which also falls under our free printed return address envelope promotion.

Receiving a gift that is personalized can help demonstrate to the recipient that the gift was really thought about and planned for.

Whether you have never heard of the day before, or even if you wait until the last minute, there is still time to purchase a gift of appreciation for the professional assistants in your life. With our onsite printing facilities, even if you choose to present personalized stationery, the majority of our products are created and shipped out within 24 hours. Or you might want to print out this blog post and leave it around the office as a hint to your own boss.

No matter what you choose to do mark the date and spread the word because cranky underappreciated and feeling undervalued co-workers are not positive in any office.
