12. Your intern, Annabelle Wilson.

“Come in.” You call over your shoulder.

Your intern, Annabelle enters. She’s a small girl–you think she might be a sophomore, so 19 or 20–with fair skin and curly blonde hair which she’s put in a bun. She’s pretty but not an overwhelming beauty. You think there’s something about her though. She has potential.

“Ah Anabelle, I’m glad you’re here” you pause to look at your watch, “and you’re early it seems. I like to see that kind of initiative.”

“Thank you, I’m excited to be here. This is a great opportunity.”

“Tell me a little about yourself. Why did you apply for this internship program?”

“I’m a geology and business major and I’m excited by what Vostro is doing in the energy sector, Mr. Howard. I never thought I’d be assigned to the CEO though. I know I’ll learn a lot from you.”

“Oh I’m sure you will.” You smile to yourself, knowing your plans for your intern. “Well, your primary duties will be supporting me in my day-to-day business. Making sure I’m on time for appointments, scheduling calls, that kind of thing. I’m sure a smart girl like you will be able to handle that no problem.”

“Absolutely Mr. Howard.”

“What else do you bring to the table?”

“Well, I can offer expertise in min–”

You cut her off, “No I have actual sector experts for that kind of thing. I mean what do you personally bring to the table?”

“Oh, of course, sorry. Well, I’m very organized and quick to pick up new skills. I’ve been told I take direction well too.”

“Oh? By whom?”

“Teachers, bosses… kinda everyone really.”

“Excellent. You’re here to learn and that will serve both of us well. And I suppose the first thing you can learn is about our dress code here.”

Annabelle looks down at herself. She's worn a suit for her first day at the office. It fits, but it’s by no means flattering. She looks back up, “I’m sorry sir, but what do you mean?”

‘Sir is good’ you think to yourself. “You’re dressed fine, but here we prefer women in the office to be a bit more stylish. This,” you gesture to her outfit, “is fine, but you’ll need to make some changes in the future.”

“What kind of changes?” She seems genuinely concerned and like if she could she’d be taking notes.

“Lose the blazer.” She takes it off and you see she’d been hiding a gorgeous figure under its boxy form. She has beautiful tits that just barely strain the top button of her shirt.

“You can also unbutton a little.” She follows your instructions.

“And finally, you absolutely must wear heels.

“Of course, Mr. Howard.” She nods eagerly. If she had a way to get heels right now you know she would.

“You seem to already know this, but it’s typical for interns to only address the brass by their last name, sir, or ma’am. Keep that up.”

“Thank you so much, I appreciate all these tips.” She seems genuine.

“Is there anything else…” you muse to yourself pretending you haven’t been planning this in the back of your mind, “Ah yes of course, your other primary duty is making sure I don’t get too stressed or unhappy. An overworked, burned out CEO is not an effective CEO. And I need to be effective.”

“Of course! What do you find stress relieving?”

“A good bourbon at the end of the day, massage, golf, occasionally racquetball. That kind of thing.” Annabelle nods along with you. “And I have to admit, making sure you’re properly prepared for an office job at the very basic level, let alone as assistant to the CEO, has started to work me up.”
