If you also want to get them a gift, just add a gift certificate to the order.
Need a few ideas on what to say to make sure the administrative professional in your life feels the love? Read on.
Tell Them They Rock
For the administrative professionals you see every day, laugh and joke with every day, you can always start with telling them how great you think they are.
“You’re a spot of sunshine every time I get to see you.”
“I swear, you were an octopus in another life and you secretly kept the eight arms. I don’t know how in the world you get so much done.”
“You always pick the very best treats to add to the candy bowl, and I want to tell you how much it brightens my day.”
Send Them an Everyday Reminder
Send the sort of card that they can keep all year and pull out whenever they need a little pick me up. A funny inside joke or even a kind observation will put a smile on their face is a great keepsake for them to have on hand.
“Today is your day, but just remember: you are special to us all the time.”
“Remember that time when we found an owl in the air duct? It was a hoot.”
“What did the Post-It note say to the stapler? This is a stick up!”
“You really are the nicest person I know, and I hope you don’t ever forget just how special you are.”
Say Thanks
Sometimes all anyone needs is to hear that they are appreciated. Start with a “thank you for everything you do,” and maybe even make a list so that you can remember to thank them throughout the year, too!
“Thank you for the incredible work you did when we were in a bind!”
“Thank you for being so patient with all of us.”
“Thank you for being such a warm and comforting presence.”
“There really is nobody else who can do what you do quite the way you do it — thank you so much.”
