How to Be the World's Worst Secretary

This is an account of the misadventures of Miss Spinks, the world's worst secretary. It is based on a real woman—who shall remain nameless. The book describes 10 incidents in her work as an incompetent secretary at a digital information company, beginning with a mishap at her job interview with the managing director of the company, when she admits that she has no qualifications, no training, and no experience in the role of secretary. But there is something innocent and endearing about her, even though she has a bizarre taste in clothes. The 10 incidents reveal how unworldly she is, but there is charm and innocence in everything she says and does. Mr Johnson, the managing director, grows to appreciate her charm, with interesting results—at the end of the book.
