Question: Anyone doing something special for Bosses Day? Last year, we had a potluck and put together a game and a slideshow about the bosses, but we're having trouble coming up with new ideas for this year. (Oct. 16 is Bosses Day, but we'll celebrate it on either the 14th or the 17th.)  -- Evelyn

Question: I recently attended a seminar for administrative assistants and one of the participants described a program she initiated at her workplace. Corporate travelers are asked to bring any unused travel-size soaps, shampoos and lotions from their hotel stays back to the office. The products are collected and donated to local homeless and domestic-abuse shelters. I'm interested in beginning a similar program for my employer. Does anyone have any background information about related programs or advice on how to start?  -- Ann, Wausau, WI
