Seceratary's Day - How important is it?

I know of a secretary who started seeking new employment after her boss failed to acknowledge the celebrations of Secretary's Day.
She says, "One year he completely forgot, the next year he promised to do lunch and I waited all day. Then, one Secretary's Day, he brought me the most disgusting bunch of flowers which he had bought at the Superette down the road from the office. The flowers were drooping and the leaves were brown. I felt terribly demeaned when he gave it to me. I thought, "Is this what he thinks of me?" And this after I had bought my boss gifts for Christmas every year, and organised Bosses Day lunches and gifts. After the rotting flowers incident, I decided to resign. The same day I started contacting employment agencies and handed in my resignation three weeks later."

The question I was left with was, "How important is Secretary's Day, really?"

Do you have a comment or story regarding?

Do you think that Secretary's Day is simply a commercialised fad?
Or is it a day on which to recognise the efforts of hardworking assistants?

I would like to hear your views.
