Then managing his schedule of appointments, etc.,. and then the other 50% of the job is supporting the other 10 team members as their admin support person.
Sorry, but I cannot be admin support for 10 people plus their boss without the proper training, a policies or procedures binder as a resource, and training on their different systems.
He basically presented the job as a baptism by fire with zero assistance from anyone. That's just not how I operate. It's not a glorified receptionist job either. Those are a piece of cake. He wants to pay me a measely $15/hr to be his entire office's admin assistant. Nope. Not the right fit for me. IF it was just his assistant, and the pay was higher like around $22/hr I'd say yes. They don't even have a receptionist b/c he closed his brick and mortar office space and his entire company is operating digitally from their homes.
There's limits to being a virtual assistant. And I think his expectations are delusional.

Thanks for explaining the job better. That's a lot of responsibility for the pay level offered.
