Family group chats can really blow up your phone. Little red flag notifications show up over and over, and messages from your family members often come over each other or at the same time.
So it stands to reason occasionally you might wish you had a little extra help answering those messages. The good news is it's now been done.
Someone is living your dream.

A now-viral TikTok shows an iPhone group chat where a man had someone else respond to the message in his stead while he was unavailable.
"Zain if u respond to family text in next 2 minutes I will PayPal u two dollars. Clock is ticking," says a message from dad, responded to by:
"Sorry this is Ian, I will relay this message to Zain and get back to your when he responds."

Dad responds nonchalantly: "Hi Ian tell zain we love him."
But the man from the video wasn't so sure.
"No way that's Acc [actually] some kid named Ian."
Ian responded by confirming that he was in fact Zain' secretary and providing his LinkedIn page to confirm.

Some users, completely ignoring the decision of the brother to have a secretary, noticed the brother's picture when our original poster showed it on his video.

And to cap it all off, Ian the secretary (or someone pretending to be him) rounded out the comments section of the original TikTok:

We are thinking we may need to be smart like Zain and hire a secretary to respond to all personal matters.
