I'm an administrative assistant (Office Manager, but that always feels so vague). I've worked other jobs, but most my jobs have been clerical/secretary/administrative assistant type jobs, and that's where I've always been happiest. So I was thrilled when I first started pin collecting to discover that there's a whole series of Secretary's Day/Administrative Professionals Day pins!

Now that I've just recently finished my gorgeous new shadowbox, I'm eager to chase down the pins I'm still missing!


Secretary's Day/Admin Professionals Day pins I need to complete my collection (click for link):



...and if anyone has seen or heard of any from 2013 on, please let me know! I'll be sad if they've stopped doing these for their admins.

Pins that aren't officially Admin Professionals Day, but that go with the theme:



If you have any of these, please look at my traders (pinpics user name vixyish) and see if we can make a deal!

Cute pins Vixy!! I wish I could be of help, but I only have a few "writing" themes for trade/sale, but they aren't specifically secretary. All the best on your search and will keep a lookout for you!
 
These are awesome pins. From one officemouse to another, we totally rock! We work hard, and we play hard! Haha! Hope you are able to get these pins!
 
I have this pin, ( Pin 69517: Cast Member - 2009 Administrative Professionals Day Pin Card Combination (Roz - Monsters Inc)), but the waffle stamp does not go all the way to the edge. I'm not sure if that means it is a scrapper, or if it was made that way. I posted a question about it in pinpics ages ago, but never got any response. Let me know if you're interested!
PS I also have this office pin, if you're interested - Pin 44325: Mickey Mouse - Businessman
 

I know that at least some pins in general got made that way, like some more recent DSF pins, though I don't know if they're all from the same place. (At the same time I don't know why anyone would be selling scrappers/counterfeits of *that* pin...) Does the part without a waffle print look rough? Does it come to an abrupt edge or are there lines closing off the design? Can you take a photo? And do you have the card?

(I do already have 44325, but thanks for offering that one!)
 
Best of luck - will keep an eye out for some of these pins....LOVE the Stitch with computer....too cute!
 
Now, I don't have any of those pins, but I do have this one?:



Now, I know it isn't specifically clerical, but posting just in case it might fit your collection!

(Also, FANTASTIC shadowbox!!!)

That's really nice of you, and that's a cute one! I don't want to add the Bosses' Day pins to my collection though. Thanks anyway! :wiggle:
