Office aides share details about work


By Gavin Fowser

For the past three years, I have seen the student office aides in the office but there was one thing about it that I was curious about. They looked bored out of their minds and I wondered why they looked so bored. I asked them what do they do in there, why they wanted to be in there, and is it boring some times. I don’t know about you, but it does not look like much fun to me. If you get the chance, look at their faces and see if they look bored, sad, or happy. I asked a few questions, and here are their answers:


Q: What do you do as an office aide?
A: I deliver and pick up attendance, deliver counselor slips, and make students'
ice packs. I also pick up and give teachers their deliveries.
Q: Is it boring or fun?
A: It's fun and boring at times.
Q: What do you like about being an office aide?
A: Everything.
Q: Why are you an office aide?
A: I get to deliver slips.
Q: How do you become an office aide?
A: Apply through a counselor and have good grade as well as attendance. You must have good behavior and no referrals.

If this sounds good to you, you just might want to look in to it. Your counselor can provide more information if needed about this important job.
