As it is half term and we have our little darlings to entertain, we thought it would be fun to include them in a post.
TOPIC – What do we do for a living? So we asked the Directors son and partner and the Office Manger’s son what do you think your Mum/partner does for a living?
Director’s Son – ‘Earn toot’ as a business
Director’s Partner – Stay up working all night keep me in the custom I’m used to.
Office Manager’s son – Well I think you help people manage their money and help people to get along like the clients you see each week. There is lots to do on the computer and lots of other confusing stuff!
Office Manager’s partner – Business Organiser (that was it!)
So what are we doing during a day? What sort of work are we doing for clients.
