Chapter 12 - I lost track of time

Mitchell walk out of Jade office and sat back on her sit.

You are out earlier then I expected what did she say to you?

Nothing much she just gave me some work to do what task did she give you? A user researcher..... Wow 😮 a user researcher really? Yeah.

Mmm.... It seems Jade think of her highly. This place is going to be interesting with Mitchell here.

All Mitchell coworkers got busy with their walk and the place become really quiet the only noise that could be heard was the key board sound.

4 hours later Jade office door open and she cat walk out.

Seb raise his head and saw her going out he quickly stood up and asked Jade where to? Jade turn to Seb and smile I'm going to the top floor to discuss about the company with Mark and am spending the whole lunch break there do you want to accompany me Seb?

No, no, no Jade you can go ahead I'm not interested.

Better jade say and walk out.

Tsk... Every time Mark Seb say inedible. Team let round up and go for lunch.

Few minutes later all the team members stood up ready to go for lunch, Mitchell was still busy with her work totally forgetting about Seb announcement few minutes ago.

Mitchell what are you still doing on your computer the whole team is waiting for you to go to lunch together.

Ohoo! I totally forget, am sorry everyone Mitchell say switching off her computer am really sorry everyone!.

The company have a cafeteria at the 4th floor all you need to eat there is your employee card.

Once you enter your employee card you get access to all the various dishes like jollof rice and plantain, rice, stew and meat, moimoi and boiled egg and the last dish is eba and vegetables soup and do you the most amazing thing, all the food teste really good Seb explain to Mitchell as they walk to the cafeteria.

After lunch Mitchell and her coworkers return to their office and continue their work.

Mitchell spend all her first day of work analysing date to identify pattern and trends.

Closing time from work is 4pm if you decide to work overtime that is your own free will cause the company doesn't pay extra for overtime.

Mitchell coworkers left the office little by little even Jade also close from work leaving only Seb and Mitchell.

Seb also got off work before he left he drag his chair close to Mitchell and say I'm leaving Mitchell don't work overtime you know the company doesn't pay extra and more over Jade doesn't like us working overtime.

Okay! Seb but I'm not planning working overtime I will just round up with what am doing before leaving.

okay then make sure you don't work overtime Jade doesn't like it.

okay I have heard you Seb but I have come to this realization that you are the only one who call team leader by her name "Jade" what relationship do you have with her?

Hmm....we have no other relationship then being in the same team.... are you sure? Mitchell asked teasingly.

Mitchell you look like some one who doesn't listen to gossip or gossip so don't try to be one byebye see you tomorrow....

Oh! ..... byeeee!

Mitchell continue working in a good mood as Seb left.

Mitchell only came to realization on how time have gone by when she finish one of her task.

She was able to analyze the data, pattern and trends.

Wow I can't believe I finish this but is really late already but the good thing is I'm going to finish my tasks sooner than I expected.

She switch off her computer and Carry her bag and walk straight to the elevator Mitchell got out of her company building and walk to the bus station.

Thankfully I can still take the bus home which means I didn't spend any extra money.

Mitchell was the only one waiting for the bus at the bus station it reminded her of her university years were she will wait for the bus after finishing her part time jobs but most of the time she was pick up by Austin which made her instantly think of him.

she waited for few minutes before the bus came and she enter and the bus zoom off.

When she got home Ella was busy watching TV and quickly stood up Mitchell you are finally back did you meet Austin?

No I didn't was he here? Yes he say he was worried that you didn't answer any of his messages or pick his call and your phone suddenly wasn't reaching through again and he didn't have my number to ask if you are back home, so he came to check and now he is going to your office he seems very worried.

Oh no.... Mitchell move her phone from her bag and try to switch it on and it didn't turn on.

Shoot I ran out of battery my phone is dead.

Ooo let me call Austin with my phone so that he will stop worrying and go back home.

Yeah do that please thank you.

Ella quickly brief Austin about the situation.

She is fine go back home she will explain to you clearly when she charge her phone, with that Ella disconnected the call.

So what happened why are you coming back now?

I worked overtime by..... What? How can they make you work overtime at your first day of work but Austin told me that you say the company doesn't pay extra for overtime so employees are not allowed to work overtime.

Yes I wasn't supposed to work overtime but I lost track of time that why. Really? Yes let me plug my phone by the way what did you guys have for dinner? am so hungry.

Look at you working overtime on your first day of work with out getting any extra pay and you also starve yourself in the process, tsk.... you are so unbelievable Mitchell.
