*Back track to Monday evening after work*
It's been a really frustrating day, after having to deal with those set of lazy bums I can't but feel irritated. I mean the company is not mine, but who wouldn't be offended by such workers who are just there to destroy a person's sweat then at the end of the month expect a good paycheck.
I am not in HR and after this incidence I doubt I want to be. If I encounter such behavior at the office everyday I will go bald.
Anyway it's a good thing it's been dealt with. Can't even imagine how much losses and bad reviews that place has incurred. Now all I want to do is go lay on my beautiful bed and go right to sleep.
Hmph ! Hey wake up, which bed are you talking about. Do you have a bed ?
Oh shit ! i have nothing in my house. That just drained my spirit. How am I going to do this now. I can't keep sleeping on the floor. That will just be a recipe for disaster.
I can imagine my boss saying with his grumpy face "Miss Martins if you can't keep yourself in good health then you can't work here. I do not allow lazy and irresponsible people in my company"
I need to order furnitures and other basic necessities. I don't even own a refrigerator or microwave. What the hell am I gonna eat when I get back.
I feel the irritation rise within me again. I just want to go re sack those people. If not for them I would have finished early enough to make these orders.
Hehe, keep ranting you are going to sleep on the floor. I pack up my stuff and leave. I will just go to the mall and get something to eat tonight and a portable camp bed. That should do until my furnitures arrive.
I hail a taxi and give my destination. It seems like I was supposed to experience the all international drama day because this taxi driver is one hell of a funny guy.
So while in the back I was thinking of what to get when I noticed the driver kept glancing at me. I thought there was something on my face.
"is there something on my face Sir ? "
"oh hoho, nothing nothing at all" okay ?
"why do you keep staring at me then ? "
"Hmm. Don't be offended but are you married ? "
"No I'm not. why do you ask ? "
"you are not ? Don't you have any male around you ? " I am kind of surprised by his question. Why is he asking me this. He doesn't even wait for a reply and continues
"They must be blind and stupid. How can they not have snatched you for themselves..."
"I take a strong exception to that " he ignores me
"Such a lovely looking lady and no ring on that finger ? Child how old are you ?... "
None of your business but it won't hurt to answer
"21"
"21?" I nod
"You are old enough. if it were back in my days, young men would be lining up on your porch just to get a glimpse of ya" Thankfully it's not
"and your papa will be chasing us with a pistol for four years now " He ain't got the spine
I was so caught up in his rant I didn't realize we were already at the mall.
"you know lady, I have two grown sons. Fine men they are. Both are in the army. I can certainly hook you up. I know they will thank me" At this I couldn't help laughing.
"That's thoughtful of you but I'll pass. Have a goodnight"
I was thinking about this conversation while shopping. After that incidence in Highschool I haven't even allowed myself to think about being with someone.
It wasn't going to be possible. Not in that dungeon. And now I have to focus on my career. I need to stand on my fit. I doubt I will have the time.
Unless boss suddenly starts traveling every week. Because I tell you I maybe new but I am smart enough to know that being his secretary is definitely not going to be easy.
I mean look at my work load. And I just started. Anyway I am still young. Maybe in a few years I will put relationship on my plate but for now I should concentrate on my job.
The next day I am up early to work as usual. You think I will relax because the boss isn't in. Nah he had to appear in my dream to give me orders.
I just didn't sleep well. Plus camp foams are just not it, at all. I think I'm beginning to fear my boss and being sacked. He thinks he can get rid of me, no way. I am here to stay. So I am going to work even when there's no work.
