Job interview

Not wanting to miss the chance, Jamie grabbed his purse and headed to the office. Hopefully he would get finally get his own phone back, but at this point, he wasn't sure that was going to happen anymore. Either way, doing anything beat doing nothing. He ordered an uber and, once arrived, headed to the office.

Jamie thanked the driver for the ride and took in the site of the building. It was new, it seemed. shiny and modern in design. Jamie wondered what kinds of things they did there as he entered through the glass door. The giant desk in the center of the lobby was dwarfed by the size of the lobby itself. The clack of Jamie's heels echoed with each step as he made his way to the overworked woman behind the huge desk.

“Hi, I'm looking-” Jamie started to say before being cut off.

The woman held up a finger and answered the a ringing phone before putting them on hold.

“There is an interview for-” He tried again before getting cut off again.

The same thing happened once more. The finger. The phone. Putting on hold. One more time he tried before being told to sit in one of the chairs along the wall. Jamie took the seat, crossing his smooth legs, frustrated at the situation. Jamie sat there for a long while, going through the phone and bobbing his foot up and down, before the secretary called out to him.

“Last name?” she asked him.

“Miller. I'm here to-” he started before being cut off again with that damn finger.

Again Jamie waited with the phone before a man came out from a side door. He looked over at Jamie and grinned, looking him up and down. He reached into his pocket as subtly as he could, readjusting himself. He knew already that he was going to hire this person in the sexy skirt.

“Ms. Miller?” he asked hopefully.

“Yes,” Jamie said hearing his last name.

“Please, come this way,” he said.

Jamie got up, confused, but followed. The inside of the building was just as impressive as the outside. Jamie was lead into an office with an expensive looking desk topped with a name plate. Albert White: CEO.

“Have a seat please,” he told Jamie.

Jamie did, waiting for an opportunity to speak. Again he sat, his long legs crossed but now across from the CEO. Albert stole glances at Jamie's legs as he went through a file on his computer.

“Everything here checks out. Which is great because I could really use your help. Would you be willing to start today?” he ask, cracking his fingers.

“Start today?” Jamie asked, not sure what he was talking about.

“I could use someone to man the phone and sort through some backed up emails. Can you do that for me today?” he asked, still grinning.

“I...sure?” Jamie responded, taken off guard.

“Wonderful. You are hired then. Welcome aboard. Let me show you to your desk,” he said getting up.

Jamie stood, bewildered. He had a job? This was wonderful! He happily followed Mr. White to his new desk. He was instructed of his duties and was informed of the pay. When he heard the dollar amount, he was floored. He was going to be back on his feet in no time!

Jamie got to work, going through emails and answering calls. Occasionally he caught sight of Mr. White watching him, making sure he wasn't slacking off. He would smile when he noticed him, assuring him he was grateful for the position of assistant. Jamie felt great after putting in an honest days work.
