My Understanding of a Typical PR Person’s Day Via My Friend’s Twitter Updates

My Understanding of a Typical PR Person’s Day Via My Friend’s Twitter Updates


I have a friend who works as an account manager. She is a public relations pro. Or so say her hashtags. She works in a little firm that specializes in education stuff. Often she has attempted to describe her daily work duties to me. But I’m still confused. All I can gather is the following, via her Twitter feed:
