Recommended Posts

it might mean "good girl friday"...a girl friday is an efficient and faithful female aide or employee

It is indeed a job title, I'm just trying to figure out what it is... and I seriously hope aem4162 is only joking. :huh:

i missed the other definition at dictionary.com "n : a female assistant who has a range of duties" :blush:

i'm not joking. it's an old, sexist term. a male assistant with the same duties is called "man friday" and is probably paid a lot more

Good Google-er For Relentless International Destruction Agency YAY!

pshh ez :blink: :blink: :D

:rofl: that's funny.

I think the term comes because women were normally the people who were working under men. This was more prevalent and that is how the term comes out.

As aem4162 points out, the men working under women are called "men friday". They do all the duties that they are required to do and much more :shifty:

girl fridays and man fridays can work for both men and women. just refer to them as administrative assistants instead

Anita's opinion was most likely proper. It meant "GG Friday" --"Good Girl Friday", because the job title is: RECEPTION/GGFRIDAY. A girl is usually good at being a good receptionist. See the introduction below:
