We’d met in the executive dining room. For once the managers would be dinning with the plebs. Our cook had excelled herself and after lunch one of our biggest customers had just signed an order that would keep us busy for the next six months. “Me daughter is looking for a summer job.” Oh aye, “And let me guess your company has rules about employing manager’s offspring?” He had that sort of sheepish look about him. “When can she start?” “This afternoon.” “Best give me her name and phone number then.” “I don’t want my name mentioned.” Cloak and dagger at its best.
Thinking about it I thought I’d better handle her myself. I didn’t want any manager making the mistake of annoying her so after lunch I rang the number. “Claire?” “Yes?” “I need someone to make me a coffee in the office.” You could hear the exasperation down the phone. “You can’t make your own coffee?” “I could do but I’d heard you were looking for a summer job?” “Minimum wage?” “I thought thirty an hour?” “Thirty an hour?” “Well I could stretch to forty but that’s my limit. My mug is empty at the moment so when can you start?” “Tomorrow morning?” “I think my caffeine withdrawal symptoms might have kicked in by then. I could call the next name on my list?” “I’m not dressed for an office.” “Come as you are.” “In pink pyjamas?” “I can run to a dress code and five dollars an hour extra for pink pyjamas.” “Are you having me on?” “Just get here when you can.”
I turned and looked through the proposal for robotic arms and ran my eye over the figures. They looked a bit high to me.
She turned up thirty minutes later. Wordlessly I picked up my coffee mug and led her to the coffee machine where she poured out my coffee for me. “Milk?” I nodded “Thank you.” as she handed it to me. She’d passed the practical. I hand wrote a letter of offer signed it and asked her to sign it. “Just take it down to HR for me.”
I rang Mike in security “Two gentlemen by HR please with a photocopier box.” “Anyone I know?” “Just a transfer at short notice.” He grumped “Don’t know where I’m going to find two bodies at this time of day. Charlie’s on break.” “Just let me know if he’d prefer two seats for the game or two dozen beers?” “That’s bribery.” “And you better let me know your choice as well hadn’t you.”
The phone rang. “Mrs. Turner from HR here.” “What can I do for you?” “I have a girl here with a hand written note that she says is a job offer.” “Claire?” “Yes but you can’t hire someone without any qualifications for the position of executive assistant. I wasn’t even told there was a vacancy. I could have found you someone much more suitable and professional and as for this dress code amount if she wears nightwear in the office. Well I’m not having it.” “I’ve seen her work and I’m satisfied.” “I’ll bet you are.” “Are you refusing to enter her in the system?” “Most certainly.” “You start work in the new northern office on Monday.” I picked up my mobile and mentioned to Mike “Help Mrs. Turner pack and escort her off site.”
Then I walked down to HR. Zoe was there looking on. “Hi Zoe write up Claire for me and do you mind becoming departmental head?” She blinked “And if I don’t I get sent off to the frozen north as well I suppose.” I handed her an envelope. “Your tickets are inside. Oh and you might like to hire a new assistant.” She looked in the envelope. “I don’t believe this you really have given me two tickets to the frozen north.” “I thought you might like to stopover in Amsterdam with your young man on the way to the conference near the ski resort.”
Claire was watching this byplay with an open mouth. Mrs. Turner had started to become a problem telling managers who they could hire after interviewing staff herself. Trouble was she gave everyone the standard office filing tests as she didn’t understand much else. Zoe would just go with a more appropriate set of tests and advise managers what she thought might be best but leave the final decision up to them.
Claire came back in a sort of daze. “Did you just fire that woman?” “Good heavens no. We’re opening up a new office in Behchokǫ̀ to offer support to the local mining customers and we’re having staffing difficulties. Mrs. Turner is the ideal person to sort out the problems.” “Behchokǫ̀ where on earth is that.” “Sort of go west a long way then turn right to the North and keep going. It’s quite civilised it even has a hotel and a gas station.” “Am I really an executive assistant on forty five dollars an hour?” “It’s only for the summer. Veronica wanted to take the summer off to be with her children so we income averaged her pay with Zoe’s help. Anyway it’s only forty an hour unless you put your pink pyjamas on.” She glared at me and walked out of the office. Zoe had come in with something for me to sign and was there when she came back in wearing her pink pyjamas. “I love the bunny rabbits.” Zoe exclaimed. Claire did a sort of modelling pose and spun round. “They’re quite respectable aren’t they.” I looked at the pair of them grinning. “Shall we just say anything you can sleep in is acceptable.” “You mean like jeans and stuff?” I nodded and Claire went off to get changed back into her tight leggings.
“So like what am I really doing?” “Besides making my coffee? Being useful and researching things for me.” “Like what?” “How can we automate, and do a cost benefit analysis.”
It was two weeks later that she came into my office and wordlessly handed me her phone. “Jada sent me an audio and a video.” I glanced at the video playing on the screen. A blonde, mid-twenties I put her, was taking her clothes off. I looked at Claire puzzled. “Keep looking.” I looked back at the screen and there was my purchasing manager in shot. The blonde knelt before him and gave him very sensuous massage before undoing his belt and flies and fishing him out. Then she gave him a very expert blow job before turning round and although I couldn’t see the details it was fairly obvious they were copulating. “Who is the blonde?” “The sales person who is proposing to sell you two dozen robots.” I looked at her “Now why?” “Listen to the audio.” I recognised the blonde’s voice again. “It’s in the bag at premium prices since I told them it needed extra programming to meet their specific requirements.”
“And you thought I might be interested?” “The sales lady is a bitch and has been making Jada’s life hell.” “Say nothing to anyone and warn Jada not to say anything as well. I’ll deal with this in my own way.”
“Ralph you’ve done a wonderful job on that robotic arm proposal. It looks really cost effective. Now can you look through our suppliers and see if we can reduce the number in some way. I can handle the robotic arm thing from here.”
I had Claire set me up a meeting at the robotic arm company’s office and asked that they had some technical people present. 9:30 in the morning. Great now all I needed was a witness and I didn’t want anyone from the company involved. Early the next morning I dug out my list of students who had applied for a summer job and rang the first name on the list. He wasn’t available but if I’d like to call back in an hour’s time? “Thank you.” I called the next number. “Man do you know what time it is?” “A little after seven since I start work at seven?” He put the phone down.
I had a coffee and picked up the phone again at eight. The next phone call started in a more promising way. “I’d love to but I have to get my brother off to school first. I could make it by ten?” He took a walk down to the factory floor and was surprised to see a robotic arm on the assembly line. “Oh that well we had a bit of spare cash and Dan’s back was playing up again which meant we were getting behind stacking the pallets so we brought one.” “Does it only stack pallets?” “Jack’s the one who knows how to make it work.” He called Jack over. “I didn’t think it would do any harm but yes we’ve tried it out doing a few things now depending on who is taking time off.” I took a photocopy of the invoice and tucked it in my jacket thinking I really must walk round a bit more often. Oh well an hour to go before his meeting. I drank a coffee and rang the next name on the list. “Well yes I’m available but I haven’t had breakfast yet.” “I’ll pick you up in twenty minutes at your place.”
I picked up the keys to the small van they used to run errands and drove over to pick up my new employee for the day. “What am I doing and how much am I being paid?” “Coming with me to a meeting and Zoe can sort out the details later on.”
We arrived two minutes early and were led up to a conference room and sat on the other side of the table was the blonde sales person flanked by two technical people. “Isn’t Ralph with you this morning?” “Since he’s done such a wonderful job on this procurement I’ve asked him to look at one or two other projects for me. I have a copy of his notes.” “Would you like me to just quickly run through what we are offering?” “That would be nice.” The power point came up and she quickly flipped through the slides.
“So what do you do Erin?” Came the question across the table. “I’ve no idea.” “She’s just here to distract you.” She glared at me “That’s sexist.” “I’ll make you a coffee when we get back to the office to make up.”
Then the technical people started in asking what customisation we required. “Customisation? I thought we were buying an off the shelf device with a proven track record? Aren’t you proposing a Q93a?” “Yes of course.” “Do we get a discount for two dozen?” “Fifteen percent is the normal discount and I have applied it to the total.” I handed over the photocopy of the invoice and asked if she could check if we’d paid it yet. Her face went white and she tapped away on her laptop. “Yes I can confirm it has been paid.” “So we just need to amend the price on the bottom of the contract?” “Could we discuss this privately between the two of us?” “As long as Erin stays with us I’m happy. I wouldn’t like her to get lost on her first day.” If looks could kill I’d be dead. “We’ll head back to the office then and await your amended contract then.” I beamed at them all and led Erin back to the van. She gave me a hard stare “What was that all about and why was I there?”
“I suspected the saleslady had inflated the price and I didn’t wish to be alone with her.” “Who is Ralph?” “My procurement manager.” “You mean she was screwing him and inflating the price?” “I didn’t see it with my own eyes but yes that is what I suspected.” “Oh.” Erin sat quietly besides me as I drove back.
Needless to say once back I popped into Ralph’s office and played the recording of the saleslady with her manager talking about the premium price. “I’m expecting an amendment shortly with a much lower price. I’ve always felt that rotating managers is a good idea so you’re transferred to managing the parking lot as of now. Your salary is red lined so remains the same but there will be no increases. You may wish to look elsewhere at other employment opportunities.” “Where did you get that recording?” “Recording? What recording? Oh that just something that appeared on my phone.” I smiled at him and left his office wondering down to the shop floor and sort out Jack. “I’ve another two dozen robotic arms coming think you can set them up? Oh and I’ll talk to Zoe about redefining your position.” He looked at me “More pay lad and let the others know their jobs are safe.”
Well satisfied I crawled back to my office and grabbed a coffee as I passed the machine. Then I had a thought and poured out a second mug. As I slipped into my office there was a cry. “Hey that’s my job getting your coffee.” “I promised Erin I’d make her one with my own fair hands.” Claire looked at me suspiciously. I put both mugs down on my desk. “Where is she by the way?” I took a sip out of my mug of coffee as Erin entered the office wearing a coat. Odd I didn’t think it was cold and I’m sure she didn’t have one with her earlier. “I’ve been talking to Claire.” I froze. I felt instinctively this was going to cost me money. You could always tell from the tone of the voice. She fidgeted with the buttons on the front of the coat then undid them one at a time. “She was telling me all about her dress code and forty five dollars an hour.” She pulled the coat apart and underneath was well it was a deep blue colour and I could see her hard nipples standing out very clearly. Ever felt like a rabbit frozen in a car headlight? There was a sort of satisfied look on her face and she dropped the coat on the floor stepping towards me with slow deliberate steps until she sat down in my lap. She lent in and kissed me bringing my hand up over her breast and hard nipple as she did so. “I got dumped three months ago. Can you imagine three whole months with only a vibrator to keep me warm?” Not having any experience with a vibrator I couldn’t really imagine very much at all. She moved my hand down over her crotch and my fingers slid through her soft pubic hair and moved in to kiss me once more. “You’re looking a bit pink I think you should lie down. She stood and helped me up from the chair then laid me back on the carpet. A folded up coat appeared under my head. A pair of very sheer blue knickers were discarded and then she was laying next to me, kissing me and loosening my clothes.
As she lowered herself onto me I realised that I’d never thought about a female being top. This was definitely a new sensation just lying back and letting her do all the work. Not as much control but on the other hand she definitely knew what she was doing.
Afterwards she lay by my side. “God I needed that.” She gasped. There was a cough. Zoe stood there “I have some documents for you to sign.” I got up and pulled my slacks into place. I glowered at her. “First I must remind you that sexual relations with a company employee is against company policy.” “Who agreed to that?” “You signed off on it and you really must set a good example.” There was a snigger form the corner I looked up to see Claire trying hard not to have a fit of the giggles. “Fortunately she hadn’t signed a letter of offer yet so technically she isn’t an employee of the company.” I caught a look at Erin’s face. “What do I have to do?” “Sign here, here and here.” “Five year contracts for Erin, Claire and Jada at forty five an hour?” “But they are with your second and third companies neither of which have that in their policies.” “I didn’t think anyone knew about them?” “Well we do provide services to them.” There were five of them really and they only existed on paper and were brought out when someone wanted three bids. Occasionally they won a contract just to show they existed and they had some money in them so they could hire the three girls. “Why five years?” “Erin wants to do a PhD so hence five years and the other two got treated the same. Five hours a week in term time?” “Yes but you’re paying their training costs.” I amended the letters and signed.
“Now Veronica’s instructions were if you got into trouble I was to pack you off home and tell you you’re teleworking for the summer.” Erin sat up and ran her tongue over her lips. “I could come to?” “But what about the office?” “Claire can look after the office in the summer there are always managers and Jada to help out.” So I left Claire in charge and after collecting Erin’s things she just moved in. It was much simpler.
