[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 9861180, member: 4348"] Depends on the Office. Various things I did when I worked in the office in very brief detail. 1. initially was there to look good. I waited for someone to show up so that I could talk to them and start their paperwork, then double checked the paperwork. Started work with clients and their investments. Took client calls. Advised on best strategy, or if they insisted, put in calls for them. 2. I advanced to Managing! Then I went over the paperwork #1 would have done and determined the next steps. I organized the schedules to what was needed. I went over accounts assigned to us and went over investments (if you have 400 clients and a 40 hour week, that's only 6 minutes per client if you only do clients full time, which, as you can see from the above, that's not happening). I actually had more than 400 to worry about, but the actual client was handled by those below me (see #1). I only handled ones which had issues elevated to me, which could be in the hundreds. 3. Promotion and now over a Region. Dealt with even bigger clients and bigger issues. Took a lot of calls. Worked on strategy over region, was now looking at contract creation and talking it over with lawyers and HR. Talking a lot with various managers over the course of a week. If I had time got out of the office for visits to locations. 4. Started own firm! Yay! Now I no longer have a 40-60 hour week...I have an unlimited week where I may never sleep again! A lot of calls to try to recruit clients. A lot of time looking at resume's and applications to find people to hire, or fill vacancies. A lot of time monitoring the market. A lot of time doing our own investments and managing a growing board of investors with us. 5. Retirement! Browse Enworld. [/QUOTE]
