Girl Friday = a female office worker who does different types of work.
Watching films is good English practice: His Girl Friday (1940).
Sometimes I am my own girl Friday in my company.
I talk to people, I have meetings and presentations, I write personalized syllabuses for communicating in a legal, business, financial, medical English environment and most of all, I keep people talking at my specialised English courses (and laughing…now and then).
Nevertheless, I do find time to enjoy a dark and gloomy afternoon as the one depicted below.
Painting by Julius von Leypold (1806–74), Wanderer in the Storm, 1835.
