To be honest, i find seccys to be quite integral to my liti life. It's not really about picking up the phones. It's about doing the menial stuff that you cannot bill to clients. Think about things like photocopying, preparing bundles, filing stuff on elit, scheduling and taking phone calls.
Let's not mention ensuring that the office is clean. My seccy goes around once a day to disinfect our desks.
I will find it hard to get on without my seccy, but that's just my two cents.
