Eh, I can think of some examples for sure, I think there are still a lot of people like this.
* Bookkeeper & planning approval within city government
* Doctor/dentist/optometry receptionist & scheduler (both at independent offices and at major hospitals)
* Front desk staff at almost every company with a physical front desk
* University administrative staff (there can be a lot more of these people than you'd think)
* DMV workers
* Probably lots of teachers
Those jobs all will use other software as well, but a lot of their job is making and filling forms on a computer, where they are likely needing to use MS Word fairly often to write things up.
