Lindi (lindimarie) I answer phones, do accounting type work. I'm not necessarily an accountant, but I'll take any suggestions :)

Lindi (lindimarie) Thanks to the readers over in this challenge prompt thread I found a few that fit under the Receptionist category,

Mr. Churchill's Secretary by Susan Elia MacNeal
The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith


message 3: by Alex (new)

Alex Attachments by Rainbow Rowell
Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
Something Happened by Joseph Heller

I was looking for jobs similar to my own (accounts payable and general office work) and this was the closest I got without going full secretary.

Lindi (lindimarie) Alex, thank you SO much for these ideas! I work in accounts receivable and also do general office work, answering phones is only a small part of my job.

I was finding it extremely challenging to find something that fit into this category.
