The first spanking

"I will now have to ask each of you to please spank me three times on... on my bottom with the strap selected by human resources. Please form an orderly queue", you say and turn to the storage unit to get out the strap with the right number of it. Your team gets a preview of your bottom in the process, but that is hardly a concern now. You weigh the strap discreetly in your hand before placing it on the table (from which you also pick up your ID and place the latter back around your neck, letting it fall between your now bare breasts). Your best guess is that it lives up to its "light" description. Spanks with it surely will hurt more than hand smacks, but you do not think your subordinates will be able to do too much damage with it. Some bruises maybe, but not beat you black and blue. This certainly makes sense (assuming the guess is correct in the first place); this is not even a punishment for something you have done now, only for past attitude.

The bench was obviously put there to be made use of for the many spankings that are about to begin. The position for the first one was not specified, so you simply stretch on it on your tummy, remembering to face to the left from your spankers' perspective to give the right-handed ones a better swing. Your elbows are bent and tucked under your breasts (which shows the sides of them) and your chin rests on your fists. You can see the first person approaching... And it is Craig, who presumably due to wanting to talk to you in the morning ended up nearest to your desk, followed by Neha. He looks like he wants to say something as he picks up the strap, but apparently changes his mind and quietly lines it up across your cheeks. Then he takes a swing.

The strap cracks loudly against your bare skin and you feel the bearable but nonetheless sharp heat line flare up across your exposed behind. Your toes curl as you grunt softly into your fists, but you manage to keep your reaction to that. Humiliated as you are to feel your cheeks wobble as a new employee spanks you, you are also relieved that your estimate was correct. You will be sore from the very beginning of the day, but you will be able to take the strapping. At least this one. Craigs whips you twice more in quick succession, strokes quite close together but not overlapping. "Thank you, Craig", you say in a surprisingly firm voice. He says you are most welcome and passes the strap to Neha. The young woman is obviously hesitant to go through with this, but your prone submissive position, Craig's successful example and the queue behind her expecting progress to be made combine successfully to get her to start. The strap lands with less power and you betray no reaction, but that actually seems to encourage the girl, who delivers the second and third strokes with more gusto. The last one does elicit a moan out of you and Neha somehow manages to look both elated and terrified by the fact. You make sure to thank her warmly as she passes the strap to the Laura. The new arrival looks relieved, nervous, excited and horrified all at once.

Your original team members (several of whom follow Laura herself) seem a lot more comfortable whipping your rapidly reddening and increasingly uncomfortable behind. The smirks which your pained reaction to particularly severe strokes brings out are undeniable. Unsurprisingly Peter seems to be the most expect and enthusiastic with the strap; you can safely say you would have rather taken any six strokes by any two other spankers over his three truly viciously perfect ones. You yell mutedly into your firsts after each lash, wondering if you were not the only one in your team with unconventional interests. "I have to say I'm starting to see more bright sides to not being promoted", he says. Although you are here for the humiliation, you do not exactly appreciate the comment and have to thank Peter through gritted teeth. You are rewarded with a patronising pat on your bottom, which does not improve your mood.

Out of the younger members of your enlarged team, Dave and (to your surprise) Zarina turn out to be most capable and enthusiastic spankers too. You just about manage to suppress the sobs, but your eyes are swimming by the time the line winds doubt. You have little doubt that a heavier implement or a longer spanking would have had you crying fully... And another one, even if light, on top of the one you just received almost certainly will do. Diana is the last to use the strap (something tells you she let others go ahead, she certainly was close enough to you to have an earlier place in the line) and she does so... with a smile that is best described as "dreamy" but without any obvious viciousness. Given that she is the last, though, it is no great surprised that your voice shakes all too clearly as you thank her. Your market researcher positively beams at you as she says that you are most welcome... And with this concluded, you have to somehow get back to work and into the team leader mindset.
