Sometimes I scratch my head

This week was Earth Day and Administrative Professionals day. I don't get misty eyed about earth day or go plant trees to celebrate it is just another day. Administrative Professionals day is the one that gets me. Why do they or any other profession for that matter get their own day? In our office the "professionals" are out on a field trip today and then they're going shopping on the taxpayers dime. All because they fit the category of "administrative professionals". Why do we or anyone else need to celebrate what we do for a living? Does it add intrinsic value to our lives? If it does you need therapy and medication.
